Where are you going to be riding it?

Weight?

Height?

Do you have a budget? Riding style (plow, sail over stuff, or waht).?

For five grand you can get a lot of bike.

But before anything, where do you ride? Do you need a lot of travel? Or is it something that would favor small travel and a good pedaling platform?

Where do you live, in the States? I do have a reason for asking.

Transistion Bottlerocket, its well below five-grand, but its very versitile. And the extra dough left over you can upgrade to a good fork, like the lyrik, good brakes, Codes, and good wheels but thats total preference there. And you could get some good protection for when you do hit the hill in the downward motion. Just my two cents.
