There's no doubting it's potential. I came up with a concept for a dual shock DH bike about 11year's ago, but never did anything with it, however as such I can see why you would do it. multi main pivot's mean being able to tackle different terrain by having the advantages of high pivot's (good for big hit's) and low pivot's (better for smaller hit's and reducing pedal feed back or body influenced suspension action/reduction) In short suspension that isn't compromised in any way other than extra wieght.

Im not convinced with these yet, why does a bike need 2 shocks?

Seems a bit of a gimmick to me.
Who knows i might be wrong, and all future bikes might go this way.

im selling my 2 stage elite 9 bike 2.5k if you know any1

nookie replied... on 3 April 2009

the impact on the race circuit demonstrates its potential.

Last week Jess Stone in her FIRST race in the Elite category came second behind Tracy Moseley at the Maxxis cup Portugal.

Of course I understand the skepticism that results from new concepts, especially as this produces a split in the evolution of the DH bike as we know it.

All I can suggest is watch for 2stage results, see if any other companies follow suit and if you're lucky enough to get a ride on one you might just become convinced.

It's not really "mine' as such.

I'm doing some (product/review) work for 2stage so they sent me the bike to "play with".

I'm gonna hook up with Carl and do a review and film the 2stage team in action soon, possibly at Fort Bill. 2stage are keen to "fly the moredirt flag" so Carl may get some excellent UCI exposure at last!

We all love our bikes and rate them 10,
those who are honest may bring them down a point or two.

The components used on this TEAM BIKE are SECOND TO NONE.

It is currently being ridden at all the UCI events 2009.

I've ridden just about every top quality bike out there
(SantaCruz, Yeti, Iron Horse, Norco, Orange etc etc) through my involvement with the bike industry and need to say I have yet to find ANY other bike that achieves momentum, balance and acceleration that the Elite 9 does.

You are looking at the future of DH.
