Downhill Mountain Bike Recommendations?

[thatt1guyy]

Lets give it a price limit of $4,500.....what are some rec's?

I have been eying some "Intense" downhill bicycles lately, they seem very nice and well built but Ive never ridden one.

Last time I rode the specialized demo-9 was the hottest downhill ride around.... its been awhile,lol....

Get a Malvern Star, don't forget to peg on the cards on the spokes for that 'motor' sound.
