Yup, both mediums. Both a hoot to ride too! I just wrapped up some DH shuttling yesterday on the Scapegoat and it was a blast. It has such a playful personality. I've done a couple trail rides on it since completion and it pedals surprisingly well too!

kwxvii, How do you like your X-Fusion Slide RL2??? I am waiting on one to arrive for my singlespeed. Have not seen much in the way of reviews but for the money I could not pass it up.

Cheaper alternative to RS Reba



Way better than the stock fork (Suntour XCR V3) that it replaced. I rarely bottom out and my wrists get relief from harsh feedback from the suspension when riding down the rocky terrain of Ringwood State Park. Best $255.00 I spent on my bike! :thumbsup:

This was my first ride with it so theres not much detail I can give. It got pretty wet and muddy on the trails. My initial feedback compared to my Specialized, its a tad slower considering its heavier(~28lbs vs 31lbs) and my tires setup but very capable. On the downhill it wakes up and its very confident and the suspension feels more plush. As for the climb, I was expecting worst considering the longer travel @170mm and 66.5HA, but the climb is very manageable. Overall im happy with the result. This will be my light dh bike.

I've been sitting on the new DB Mission 4x since August. I kind of forgot about it the last few months. It's a great bike, pedals great, jumps awesome, manuals well. I've got a Kashima Float fork to install from my TRc, some XTR cranks, new rims, brakes, chainguide, seatpost, and cassette to mount up if I ever find motivation.






Here's a quick little video just toying around on a line we just built at the skills park. Certainly not what the bike was designed for but it was fun.

Picked up a 2011 Mission Pro for the parts spec recently. Blew my knee apart in whistler so I parted my Evil Undead and bought this for rehab. It wont stay around long (the frame at least) as im ordering a Evil Uprising to replace the DH bike.





Im close to being able to ride so im interested in seeing how the Mission rides.
