    What is your budget and where/how do you intend to use the bike?

    When you say 'downhill tracks' do you mean Down Hill or tracks that go down hills? There is a big difference.

    The Norco Fluid HT+ 7.2 won MBR hardtail of the year for bikes up to £1k last year.

    The Vitus Sentier is getting good reviews as well.

    Which Diamond Back model are you looking at? You haven't stated a model name in your original post.
