I need another bike in the stable for next season. I've got my Nomad, which I love, but I also need something else there for both myself and for my idiot friends who want to come ride with me but who are too cheap to bikes of their own.
I've been eyeballing the SS for a couple years, but haven't gotten to ride one in a lift assisted/shuttle setting.
The basic facts are this:
1. I am a bigger guy. 210# or so.
2. When I crash, which isn't all that often, its big and its messy.
3. "Finesse" is not a term most people would describe my riding style as.
However, this would be my big jump/Live Wire bike. Not hard metal DH, I've got the 303 for that, but something to fill the voids and to give my poor Nomad a break from my dingle berry friends.
Any thoughts?
