Hey guys im looking at this here 2008 cannondale judge for sale. I need a new downhill rig soon and this one is in my price range. I just came off of a sunday and I want a sturdy fast dh bike.

what do you guys think about the judge frame?

Any reason you're leaving the Sunday (still considered one of the best) and looking at budget frames?

I have a friend who has that frame and wants something else. He says it feels "floppy" in corners. I've ridden his bike in the street and it does handle rather strange but I can't pin point why...

I want one. Need to replace my Perp with a Judge frame for longer wheelbase.

I have never had problems with bushings on my judge. Only thing I do not like about my Judge is the cockpit it too tight for me.

A friend of mine rode for grassroots Cannondale last year and had an 09 Judge and a few things that bothered me were,1.Really cramped top tube.I'm 5'9'' and his bike was a medium and when i'd sit and pedal my knees would often hit the shifter/levers.2.If you don't wanna run the floating brake you have to buy new drop-outs,common I know,but still annoying.and 3.The decently high BB,I think it floated around 14.6-7''?He put a custom shortened DHX in it and dropped the BB,lengthened the wheelbase,and slacked the headangle...felt pretty good after that.
