A couple of days ago I had a chance to ride my buddy's 2003 C-DALE Blaze on our local mx track. It had better throttle response & low power than my Predator, but for a 10k woods race machine it should. What really surprised me was that my Predator handled so much better, especially in the corners. we tried tuning the C-DALE suspension in, but the Predator was more stabile.
