Just bought a new one Voltage FR20, from Evans and it's arrived (just). I've unpacked it, and ridden up and down the street a bit and first impressions are it's awesome........great spec, great value and very very green. Get's a good write up, been out in the USA for a bit - adjustable gemoetry so can run anything from 130mm to 200mm rear suspension, so assume the front fork will match? Mind you at 40lbs for the bike, 130mm would seem miniscule

MBUK tested some DH-ready bikes last month, including an FR10. It scored 3.5/5. Not as versatile as the others (Scratch 8, Rose Beefcake, Froggy 318) but the most gravity-orientated, built primarily for max DH fun.

Very popular as hire bike in the Alps.
