one is a freeride bike, the other two full on DH race sleds

based on warranty though- the mondraker has a lifetime on the frame.

based on racing the LP or the devinci.

out of the two- i would go for the devinci.

based on fun ride and smashing around- the mondraker.

is the mondraker that good?

idon't see much around for the durham.

the zero suspension is said that it works perfectly well.

what ya think?

 

[norbar]

What do you want that bike for? Very different bikes.

Look at the geometry of the Durham, it's a whisker off the Summum and it does have an adjustable geometry kit as an optional extra which will presumably allow you to slacken the ha and lengthen the wheelbase to make it closer still to the Summum. So it'll hardly be a slouch going downhill if the MFT is anything to go by.

I would get a used Iron Horse Sunday. Sam Hill was really fast on one of those.

the lapierre is nice but the pendbox will attract too much dirt i think...

the mondraker is a great bike, and the adjustability is a bonus.

i don't know about the totem though, it seems that some say that it is a bit sticky and not good for the small bumps.
