Its kindof hard to read your posts, so reread what you have typed.
The R9 is a really nice frame. A solid build would be something like an 888, fox dhx, mavic deemax wheels, or mag30s, sram x.9 drivetrain.

aww guys thats cold, aite, heres what im trying to say, i know the sinister is good, and i can get a hella nice discount, but is it worth it to get a diffrennt frame without the discount because of another reason? iv been told about the crazy 8 being awsome, hand made by some guy in modesto california.

Jeez I was joking around! Some people can't take a good laugh every once and awhile. Go with what feels best to you, easiest to reach and something that doesn't put a hole in your wallet. Personally I would go with a Norco because they're badass, but that's just my opinion.

You should seriously consider proofreading your work before submitting it. Either that or take 4th grade English again.

You know, I'm praying for Raiyn. All I have gotten out of his posts are that he is getting a sinster frame for uner $2200 and that seems to be about it. I wouldn't even classify his spelling as "AOLese." I think this kid has taken the cake on being the worst speller, EVER.

If you want to be taken seriously leave the AOL'ese and whatever dialect you speak on the streets out there OFF THE BOARD and type like you actually passed an English Aptitude test.
AOL'ese is against the rules here and it also specifically sates that you are to do your BEST when it comes to spelling, grammar, etc. Typing like a crackhead WON'T cut it
You have been warned.
Goddamn spellchecker just about blew a damn fuse there

Sinister R9=Awsome bike. When I was in Melbourne a shop let me test ride an R9 with 5th Element, 888's, XTR, Hope 6pots... all the good ****. It was the store owners race bike I think he said it cost around $15000 AUD!!!! But it felt soooooo good. Sounds like you would be getting a deal.
