Ive got a fully tricked out bighit, 24 inch rear, just started to get into riding after the bike sitting in my garage for 10 years (hope hubs, hope brakes, mrp, raceface forged, junior T, all good gear from 12 years ago. Seen a SantaCruz Driver 8 from 2008 with Totem forks frm 2010, dhx4, rest of the kit looks ok, guy wants equiv of 500 dollars. Mainly ridng blue and red runs, hitting whatever drops i can find, hanging with my 9 year old son (just got him a Ripcord, but thats a different matter).
Is the Driver a worthy upgrade? A second bike to try out? Or will it be much the same as the bighit?
Thanks
