My 06 Astrix Union is by far my favorite bike. It's never let me down and is super versatile. I've raced xc on it with a short fork and skinny tires, and raced DH on it with a 66 and minions. It's a pretty solid hucker too.

my favorite bike of all time would have to be my sinister ridge. the bike i wanted since i first started riding in like 07 when i saw one at milford bikes. finally got my own and road the **** outta it all last year, from days of down hilling at highland to days of hucking it off the biggest stuff i could find.

my knees started telling me no more so i had to switch to a fully again, but im gonna peace it back together over the winter and start ripping on it again :thumb:.

It is insane how people ride hardtails DH, to be good at it you must have wrists of steel and a set of balls to go with it. Great bikes. Riding a hardtail DH must teach you to take the best lines or else...

My M6. But in some ways, my ld Bianchi Super Grizzly was a killer bike. It was raced in everything from the Kamikaze to the Vermont 50-miler. It handled like Schumachers Benneton - it was super twitchy, but it would always let you save it too. Fun bike, I wish I still had it. I'd probably realize what a piece of **** it was if I still had it though.

That bike could do EVERYTHING. Whistler to Pummeling all day XC rides.

My blur is a very close second thinking i just need to spend a touch more time on it.

My Knolly DT that I currently own. It does everything well, from hammer DH trails to pedaling around XC trails. It's on the heavy side, but I can take it anywhere.

2008 sxtrail trully has been my do it all bike for the last 4 years. Everything from all mountain to epic long rides to crazy rides with tons of climbing to freeride and dh. Granted I am not leader of the pack climbing or on the dh but I am not in the rear of the pack either. I was hoping to get a few more years out of it but I finally cracked it recently :(

Banshee Rune (now with Spank Spike 777 bars) and I disapear on the trails for whole day. Built for FR side with budget in mind so it's little bit heavier so I have a good excercise when pushing it back up the top of a hill :thumb:.

My 2010 Legend. First bike I never worry about and have no problems with. Even with my crash fetish.

This is a tough call

For AM/FR I loved and really miss my Intense SS1.



For DH its my new Canfield Jedi. I had an 08 jedi which was amazing and the 2011's fixed all the small things i didn't like about the 08's. Sick bikes for sure.
