i believe that the frame has a 4 year warrany but the entire bike has 2 year's. for the o-cup it should be fine. not to much travle not to little i think it would be an exilant bike for the o cup and riding around ontario!

ya i was looking for one but found a 06 faith 2 for 2000 which was cheaper. and i've heard good things about it. but i would suggest looking around at you lbs and see if there is anything else in your price range that you might like more......

like a bottle rocket, a rocky mountain flatline.. even the mongoose pinnr..its super cheap and pretty good spec for the price.. the stinky is single pivot which means itll be meant for bigger hits and not so much smaller bumps and what not but if you want a stinky at least get the deluxe
