Oh man that sucks donkey balls. I remember when I was working barely over minimum wage and had my big hit stolen. Can't remember what year the frame was, maybe 2003? It was a black anodized frame with gold marzocchi shivers, 24" arrow racing rims, red Chris king hubs, 24x3.0 intense dh tires, purple Hayes with custom 9" saw rotors, xtr shifter/derailleur, Raceface north shore dh cranks, azonic bars and stem. It was a beast. Surprisingly not too heavy neither.
I was running an original Demo 9 before it was stolen. Fox 40, full Saint and Raceface build. She was a tank but one hell of a fun bike to ride. I had one.of those old Big Hits too. Nice bikes!
I'd like to find another big hit, just so I can put my monster T's on it with 24" wheels again. Sure it's not going to be as fast as my current bike, but I just miss the monster truck feel of it.
My cousins bike got swiped when mine did. It was a turd to begin with but he got out on it anyway. He ended up getting a Big Hit haha! And he wants to put his spare 24 on it too.

I can confirm monster trucking on a 24" rear is still a thing in 2015 and still a hell of a lot of fun My cousins bike got swiped when mine did. It was a turd to begin with but he got out on it anyway. He ended up getting a Big Hit haha! And he wants to put his spare 24 on it too.

Not too many of these making it up here but here's a throwback! My current ride: 2005 big hit FSR 2010 Fox Van R rear 2014 Rockshox Lyrik 170mm with the DH cartridge Titec scoper seat post (gives me some adjustibility) Hayes nines (hey they work, what can I say) Most recently I upgraded the front rim to a double track (because I taccoed my AlexRims) and put on new Anvil flat pedals, which are amazing. You can see these in the last photo.

Got a couple upgrades done over the summer, the frame is still in solid shape but there's still a lot of work to be done. I'd like to get another 3 seasons out of this bike before selling it and upgrading
