So in my best SCARY impersonation I need the internet to tell me what to do.
I am no longer racing. Blah, blah, blah. Anyway, would you still keep a highly specific race bike for just riding DH?
I have a 6" Mbuzi with an Angleset, a Double Barrel in the rear and a 170mm Lyrick DH up front and can handle myself well enough on DH trails with it. I don't ride DH that much anymore since I'm not racing and training but I still like to hit up my trails once a week or so to have fun. I know I can't hit the same lines or go as fast because I have ridden this bike for DH before. I enjoy it. Its different and more playful. I think I could handle the change if I only rode by myself. I just don't know if I'm ready to get beat down the hill by others on race bikes.
