Nah, seriously man, I used to rent the 2013 dune r's fucking stonking bike. They've got a really long frame. So downhill they're fucking awesome.
Very confidence inspiring bike to ride.

i was going to use my mates bike which is the saracen in the first pic but as i wasn't sure with it having never really ridden it much, so i did it on my own bike, which probably wasn't the best idea.

That's my run down the final descent on my mates Saracen. Rides great. Could have gone way faster than that.
