Isn't that a pure downhill bike (i.e. too heavy to pedal uphill??)
Will it be THAT heavy it will be no good on trails? Have edited original post to reflect my needs.

Great all round bike for all round biking.Have you made any changes to yours over the years Ben, (christ I sound geeky. If the cap fits I guess.....)? I've put a longer fork on mine, chunkier wheels and reduced to two chainrings/bashguard combo. Kind of DH lite now I guess........
