Azonic Recoil (copy of M-1) a brilliant bike, brakes very well and turns so fast I fell the first few times I rode it. Holds high speeds very well too

isn't it stock?

EDIT: sorry, just re read, ok, what are you gonna change out then?
Like everything. I'm going to try to get it really light. When I bought the bike I thought I would be doing a lot of racing at Big Bear, and it's set up pretty good for that, but now the bear is closed and I have to race Fontana (super mellow and pedaly), and I think my overall riding experience would be better if this thing wasn't such a hog to pedal around.

I'm riding a Gemini DH frame with Swinger 4-Way Coil, a Triple 8 VF (200mm!) and Sram X.9 with Trigger and Truvativ Hussefelt plus Giga Pipe DH, Magura Louise FR 210/180, Mavic EX 823 UST with Octopus 2.5" and I am super pleased with the Baby !

I'm pleased with my gemini DH so far. Dont want to talk to much smack about it until after the race season but so its a great ride. Its alittle bit on the stiffer side which i like, it feels good in the corners, BB isnt to low but not high either, everything about it just feels right to me. Set up with a 6way,888r,eight tracks,king,mags,easton carbon bars, e13, diablos cranks, sram X0, thomson, all that fun stuff. Weighs 41lbs, alittle more depending on pedals, could make it lighter by ditchin the cranks/fork but im pretty pleased with its weight so far, its lightweight but solid.
