This is my first season of DH racing, I have done 2 Gravity East races so far. Ran Beg at Wisp finished 2nd ran Sport at 7 Springs and dumped it in my race run (managed a 2:51 with the crash). I'm riding an Iron Horse 7 Point Free ride bike (7" travel, single crown fork). I would like to do some upgrading (wheels, road cass, short cage der...). Is my money better spent on getting a true DH bike or should I upgrade the current ride? My only complaint with the bike is that it feels "twitchier" at speed, doesn't seem to take a good set in corners and seems to get knocked around pretty good in rock gardens.
What do you think???
