Got to ride a summum recently.  Had no idea what to expect, turned out to be an excellent dh bike.  This build looks mint, I bet it rips

Awesome to hear how in tune with his bike and set up.  Looks like a fun rig all grungy and beat up!

Love how that thing looks much more like a rig which has been shuttling for the past 3-4 years than a factory race bike

Always funny when pro athletes describe their aluminum frame as a performance advantage. They need to get in touch with the marketing dept so they can discover what they're feeling is wrong.

Also considering that the sales volumes is way lower that with enduro and trail bikes it keeps the cost down or profit up for the companies since you don't have to deal with expensive forms.

I was so happy when Jordan Williams won on the old metal demo last year.
