First off all the "hype' around Santa Cruz is bull. Go to whistler and count how many V10s you see in a day if your lucky 3 everyone rides Demos and stinkys, Second , the money is well spent V10s are one of the Lightest yet strongest DH bikes you can buy, So money well spent. NAme one other company you can get a 36 pound DH racer from.

Yeah, I suppose that's why Steve Peat's done so badly recently...... I think someone's jealous and wants a santa cruz....!

@daves4mtb I love them, I rode my brothers all this season ,,I honestly dont know what I meant by the first part:/ There an amzing ride that will eat anything you throw at it

[daves4mtb]

@deathdealer578 - so do you like them (lightest and strongest, money well spent, name another company) or do you hate them (the hype, only 3 v10s at Whistler).

I'm corn-fused.
