Real nice bikes! Definite competitor with the glory for price and spec, was really close to buying one but they just couldnt match the run out prices on the glorys the other shops were doing. You live anywhere near manly? Go pick one up for the free 12 day trial or how ever long it is

peachy
Ripe 'n ready!
It's made by a company called Astro Engineering: http://www.astroeng.com.tw/products.asp
Companies like Polygon just buy their frames, spec it according to what they want, and slap on their own logo.
They were the dudes who made all the beautiful GT LTS frames and the Schwinn Sweet Spots back in the day.
Polygon is specifically released for the asian market, these bikes are super popular in Indonesia, and the DH community over there has nothing but great things to say about their frames. (how do I know, well I'm indonesian
)
I asked the same question last year, here's the thread with all the information you want with pictures, links etc: http://www.rotorburn.com/forums/sho...Use-this-bike-frame-Updated-with-BIGGER-piccy

Naah, I have slowed down a bit on that really - my commission has been increased.I swear I read you telling people to buy a Fury atleast once a day
Really though it is a reaction to the buy a sunday my mate's mate has one and he says its wikkid kind of posts.
All bikes have their merit.
The Polygon looks good to.
Point of interest though, try and ride before you buy, all the suspension designs feel different so you may get something you don't like.
The reason I bought the Fury was I have a Force and they are the same suspension design so I knew it would be good.

Hey Guys, i had a thread about the Polygon DHX not long ago but i think the admin cleaned up the older threads so i cant find it. Anyways it was about the 2011 DHX and trying to find out if it is worth buying or not, It definitely was a bang for buck deal BUT i chickened out.
BUT THERE IS MORE, CHECK IT!
$2998 !?!?!?!??!?!?! Its ridiculous! The bloody parts are worth more than that!!!!!!! Anyways iv put down my order but i think there is only a few left or something. So just to conclude, i did indeed end up buying one. And if the frame sucks im just going to ditch it. So fellas if you were interested in the DHX now is the TIME!

That looks like a sick frame, havent seen that one before... and as has been mentioned - awesome spec.
Sitting on a downhill bike truly is the best way to examine how capable it is.

I'm sitting on my couch right now and it feels pretty freakin' amazing... I can't wait for the '12 model to drop though, I hear it's super plush...

yeah im not too worried about the frame itself, If the frame rides good then that is a bonus i guess. I can just slap the parts on another frame. At the given price im laughing!
