Might have a good deal on one of these.
They sound like pretty decent DH frames. Why would I NOT want either one for North Shore.
Thanks

Azonic Eliminator/Recoil question
- Thread starter vibiker
- Start date
Because you don't live in Vancouver?
Kidding.
The only fella I know with an old eliminator is a pretty big guy and he's had his for about 2 years. He rides at a pretty rough place (Northstar) and it seems to have held up for him. The recoil I rode felt a little flexy in the rear end but I only rode it for about half the length of a DH run so I didn't get a real thorough impression by any means. I was curious when it came out last year and wanted to check it out as well.

they are kinda funny lookin, like the bb is too high, but I don't know that for sure
Neither bike can take anything less than a 38t chainring without severe chain rub and noise, 40t is recomended.
I raced a Eliminator in '02, and the Recoil in '03, and had no problems with them, but my first upgrade was a Avalanche rear shock for both. Both are durable and well built and offer a lot of bang for the buck.

You have too many bikes.ssaddict said:
I only have one DH a year like most of us, but I have had my share of bikes.
