The Madonna is my N+1. I built the bike as a mini DH bike, winch-up, fast down. I stroked out the fork to 180 and added a smashpot spring this winter. The WR1 wheels were on sale over the holidays and need to be built up and the Hayes brakes are a replacement for the Code RSC brakes.
I have a soft spot for aluminum bikes and can attest to the Commencal Meta TR also being a great bike.
