to narrow it down for you bottle rocket or the sx trail... if your doing more north shore stuff even though the bottle rocket was designed for that, i would get the sx trail... if your riding dj's and really flowy pump trails i would go with the bottle rocket.. both bikes are really versitile but if you want to do only one thing then thats the way i would go

ok but Sx trails are a bit pricey

yea... but well worth the money... they pedal way more efficiently than the bottle rocket.. and the bottle rocket isnt the cheapest bike either

I vote Bo-Rocket or SeX Trail. I just love the designs.

well you cant hit anything big, without a landing, theres noting big here, the biggest thing is like a 10 foot drop and he need a new front triangle, everything is bent, and this is only a 2007, they just suck for freeride, i dont know about the other six's but whatever you do, DO NOT BUY A 2007 SIX 3!!!


do not listen to this opinion the six is a great bike for freeride. spec'd up right you can ride anything on a six


ya if you sec it up right, but if you keep it stoke there no good,

How much would you have to beef it up to make it 'not stock'? New fork? Handle bars? cranks? What are the specific problems on the six? And for an entry level Freerider, wouldnt this be PLENTY of bike stock?
