Manitou Sherman Slider Plus

Oh ya... yes I have read the reviews on MTBR just wondering
if any of the
DH/Freeride people here have something to say.

Please don't disgust me... I ride a Turner DHR. That's
Micheal Dart that owns a DHi (hehehehehe)

Sheesh, I *was* being sarcastic about the DH/FR comment.

Wait a minuite now I remember you rode a i-Drive... you
helped me out with some cracked frame advice. Are you the
same Slacker?

So anyway how do you like the Turner? I am sure it is
amazing to ride. What DC forks would you put on a Bullit if
you had one? I am riding 02 Marz Jr T now. I rebuilt it from
scratch and it isn't too bad but the compression dampning is
still too fast. making it bob like crazy. I have the right
springs and I have even tried a mix of 10 and 20 wt oil....

I just want to be able to sprint hard between jumps
and drops.

The one and only. I still have the (2nd warranty replacement)i-
drive. It's now my XC ride.

Words cannot convey; If I had the $$, I would buy another
one right now for that great and horrible day. I can hardly
even look at my i-drive right now.

The Turner is sooo sick. I'm literally riding some of the
same trails at twice the speed as before. I just washed
her... she cleans up well, but I like her when she's
really dirty.

Actually, the Turner is my first DH rig, and subsequently,
my first time on a DC fork (Shiver). So I'm not going to be
too much help here. But it sounds like you're looking in the
right direction with the Slider.

Hopefully Mike Dart will reply shortly. He's got a Bullit
too and has way more experience.
