I'm on the hunt for a 600-ish bike, like a DR/XR/XT. I came across an add for a G450X for a very good price. This probably the only enduro bike I have never ridden, so any advice will be appreciated. My concerns are:

1) Reliability
2) Parts availability and cost.
3) Suspension. I remember reading somewhere that the Marzocchi forks are quite harsh?
4) Suitability for commuting 50/50 dirt and tar.

It would make sense to get a bigger bike for commuting, but I can only afford one bike now, and its important for me to have a bike that I can use to ride with my boys.
