Down hill mountain bike vs. All terrain mountain bike?

Question

I have a giant boulder se, and I was wonder if I could do the same things on this bike as a downhill mountain bike. If not is there anyway that I could turn my bike into a downhill mountain bike from purchasing parts.

Answer 1

Nope, Sorry, A down hill bike will have a longer susp. travel and a much heavier/rugged frame. The Boulders intended market is casual trail riding and not intended for hard usage.
