Fixed Pants™ Posted November 14, 2009 Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 (edited) more DH orintated i wont ride up the hill that im gunna blast down! So slacker angles would suit better. My brother in law is buyin a trek session 8 but i dont really want a pukka DH bike but i think it might have to be one. I've just had a look at the commenal supreme mini dh 2 that looks lovely does anyone know what there like?If you're looking at the actual mini dh 2, i've got one, changed a lot of bits but the standard kit isn't anything to turn your nose up against. It's burly as, rides like a dh bike, but if you put a double on it it would go up hill. I loveee mine.Just wanna change the cranks and colour of the bash and it'll be how i want it... I think.Spec: 190mm 66'sDhx5Sunline barsElixir carbonx.0 shifter, x.9 mechNukeproof hubsDa Bomb Da RimsRuktion cranksRides so nice.

Scott Gibbs Posted November 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 (edited) It was in mbuk issue 238 in their dh group test. Looks really nice clean looks, decent enough spec and has a good write up. Edited November 14, 2009 by bender b rodreguez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just had a look at the commenal supreme mini dh 2 that looks lovely does anyone know what there like?I've got a friend who's got a mini-DH. He rides it XC and has a separate bike for DH so he'll tell you that the supreme ("mini DH") is not a DH bike. It's close though, it's just not quite quishy enough for full-on DH. Ideal if you might sometimes have to ride up though.As for the Trek, I think they look awesome. Have you seen the Session 88 FR? It's basically the same frame as the DH version but single-crown forks (Totems) and slightly different drivetrain etc. Looks really nice! Might be a bit expensive still though?EDIT: http://www.evanscycles.com/products/trek/s...n-bike-ec016525 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Gibbs Posted November 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 Aye the trek is a wee bit out my price range! Nice though. Ill get a blast on my brother in laws when he gets it. But i really like the commie supreme. All the lads i know have big hits, glorys and v10s all of which are too expensive or not good pedalers.
