Alright. So I ride a hardtail gary fisher marlin right now, but I've been riding a lot lately, and have found I need a better bike. I ride some technical downhill style trails, single tracks, XC style trails, and then sometimes even ride on gravel roads and such. So I need a do it all, all-mountain bike. I want to be able to ride up-hill, and then down, with a bike capable to do it. I've looked at lots of bikes, and I think I've chosen to buy a Specialized Pitch Comp. I need to keep costs down real low, so I can't buy like a Yeti ASR7 or 575, even if I'd like one. I need a long travel bike that I can pedal uphill too. So almost a climbable DH bike. Is the pitch the right bike for me?
