Hi,
Ive been riding strictly downhill for the past 4 years until my Joshua gave out last season. Now im lookin to stay more local to where I live, instead of making trips to Vermont every time i want to ride.
I bought an 05 Hardrock Pro Disc bc i saw it as a compromise between the bulletproof kinda bike id need for my riding style w/o too much overkill considering the trails that are local to me.
If i go back to Killington this summer, I will not be riding this bike on the mountain, Ill get a second bike for downhill/freeride.
With that in mind, the trails near my house are a mix of cross country and steep climbs followed by steep rocky downhills. I want to shave some pounds off the hardrock and maintain the strength i need to prevent snapping stuff off. Thx for ur help.
