I picked up my new frame yesterday, An Ironhorse sunday world cup with vivid rear shock. Transfered the parts of my A-line park 08 most of them OEM and here is my inital impresions of the bike. F#$K YEA! The thying is amasing, It's lower longer more stable more adjile and pedals like a hardtail. In short I am amazed at just how mutch differance there is between bikes, So next time you buy a bike lash out get the absoulet best you can afford (even if it means your forced to live on two minute nudles for the next six months) caus I still cant get this shit eating grin of my face. Ps thanks Paul from beretta's for hooking a brother up. Pps Ill post photo's of it as soon as someone shows me how.

I know that that is how is works with posting, but i'm not quite sure how to do it for the actuall thread.....

I went from a brodie diablo (drop off triples 170mm and a rear shock well lets leave it at that) to an Ironhorse elite still waiting for it to rock up on my door step, the difference will be unbelievable:D

Thank for the positive feedback.
Rode track 13 at the youies yesterday raged hard on the third run,Lol got a bit to excited. Still managed to nock six seconds of my best time and I'm still trying to work out the optimal setup. I'll get the helmet cam footage of the crash up so you guys can have a giggle too. You got to bin it before you can pin it!

i know what you mean.

ive just gone from an 06 glory to an 09 team dh and the difference is huge.

a good performing bike makes a huge difference to your riding.
gives you more confidence too which is always handy hey.

Sweet upgrade dude, the Tin Pony will surely be a much more capable bike, in race terms anyway, than the A line. That said I don't care what anyway says, no 8" travel DH bike pedals like a hardtail, regardless of what sort of anti squat curve/wheel rate/wheel path etc it runs :D

Man I can't wait to see pics of this thing. Ironhorse's are beasts of bikes. First dually I ever rode was a mates old SGS, then a few weeks ago a tried out a Sunday Team. They feel so light to pedal on. My stinky has an inability to go up hill. Come to think of it, it has trouble getting across flat.....
