Your Top 5 Downhill Topmounts

[Mordeth]

What do you think are the top/best 5 topmounts for downhill that are affordable, that is, under ~$240 (killswitch)?

I know there's no best and its all personal preference but there's gotta be some that are better than others for downhill, so what in your opinion would be the top 5?

[jheidenfeld]

Personal preference rules everything but for me my hands down favorite is the Earthwing Mystery Model.

Concave feels great.
Light.
Not too long.
Adjustable wheelbase.

My only gripe are the wheel cutouts. They're relatively useless at least for me. I run pretty loose trucks and i can crank it to wheel bite with 70mm wheels. I remedied that and just hacked out the wheel wells all the way to cut outs. Not gorgeous but far more functional.

kilswitch isnt a topmount its a drop deck

ok my list.

zelous felon, earthwing mystery model(if bigger wheelwells and posibly shortened wbs were added),fullbag elise, s9 race, rayne avenger9pre w cave,

3/8" is pretty tiny... but yea I guess its a dropdeck although doesn't it more add to the all round concave?

But keep em coming!

[pennypusher]

i dont know if under 240 complete,but my favorite top mounts are sec9 race,airflow speed wing ,ranye avenger.

[vince-t]

theres no fighting the comet voodoo, then the 08 avenger, mystery model, and the landy totem pre w cave is tasty when set up right too. finally the mercado, it just looks good, havent had the chance to actually ride one

09 avenger

[Matt K]

Do you have an Elise?

Unless he was lucky enough to try one of the protos, , there not out yet, as soon as they get released Mig is sending me one, so I'll let y'all know.

[Bombsquad_Manny]

Sorry Vince Chalice leaves voodoo in the dust.
Cut Down Goddess of Speed.
38 Avenger w/o pleasure dome.

Two that i havent riden are the Fullbag one and the Madrid David Price

[Petary791]

The Madrid Andrew Mercado has been my favorite that I've tried. It's beefy, the foot placement is awesome, and the W is so helpful. I'm about to put it under the knife to make it even better. Reviews will follow, shhhhhh...

But on top of that, the new Avenger is sick and so is the Voodoo '07.

[Thrash]

anything wefunk
rayne avenger
comet loki
humu
s9 race

i don't like the rocker on the voodoo, the mystery model is too big for me to rock with seventies or less (i'm a sucker for big wheels), and the pagan is just plain too heavy. never ridden the mercado or the airflow.
