Yeah, I'd have to agree with Tonestar, I'm totally loving my new Chaparral. It has perfect geometry, not too heavy (if built up right), and the rear end stiffness is definitely confidence inspiring. You can really feel how it just tracks so nicely, and holds a nice solid line all the way through the rough stuff.

They have a bomber warranty program goin' as well.

Talk to the guys at a place like On Top, they'll be able to help you out with your Banshee needs.

I would never go big on a glory… they are pretty race oriented.. ( oooopppssss)

Look at the geometry on a Glory, it's a super sick free ride bike. It has a way
shorter wheelbase than my friend's sx trail, and we both have medium frames.
The frame is burl, just look at it. All I did was jump mine, Chump was sending
some of the biggest lines around on his. They got a low stand over to get
cacked out on easy, and are just sick. ;)
