It's a bug of sorts...I caught it last summer. A buddy of mine is a downhill racer and has been bugging me for years to get into the sport. I built my first real bike this fall...got a Specialized FSR XC frame (same as the stumpy), and all XT components. I've had tons of fun with it. I highly recommend the stumpjumper or FSR XC. Absolutely top-of-the-line bikes at middle ground prices.

Also, outside of this thread, i've yet to hear of anyone with any real complaints about Deore components. My girlfriend's bike has them and she has had no problems, and I know several guys who have deore components and are very happy with them. In my experience, anything Deore or better is what you want.
