I want a new DH bike. As always I am between sizes. SO should my new purchase be shorter, the same or longer than my trail bike. By this I mean TT (reach) length.
I get on well with my medium Trek Remedy which has a TT of 585mm. So I figure a DH bike of a similar TT and reach would be suitable. Is this a relatively good assumption? Or do I need to go shorter for pulling off sweet moves* or longer for ultimate stability?
*There will be no sweet moves being pulled.
The reason I ask really is that I want a Scott Voltage FR. The short is very short and the long is on par with my trek. I appreciate that only I can really answer this question but opinions or insight on the issue would be much appreciated.
