Ive been looking for a cheap freeride bike forever now and i had a guy that was going to sell me a yakuza aniki but for some reason he will not answer anymore of my emails so do you guys have any suggestions for a freeride bike under $1000
Thanks,
Dan

If i was you i would not get the yakuza aniki because you would end up having to replace the crappy spinner fork and theres many other good bikes you could buy used for $850. Helmet

Buy an iron horse Ojiki. Its cool and you could get it used for less than 1000. I have one and its a damn beast.

the thing about the anikis and ojikis is that they arent being made anymore and all the used ones i can find are 15" and im about 6'2" and pretty heavy so i cant find any in my size.

I have an 06 jamis dakar size 17" and ive taken it off some dessent size flat drops and stair gaps and it has just destroyed the bike so one of my friends suggested that i buy the new sette flite AM frame at price point and put all the parts from my bike to the new frame and buy a nice used cheap fork. but other than that i am at a loss.

yea specialized bighits are good but finding one under 1000 is kind of tricky. if you up the anty with youre budget you could probably geta used fsr 2 for like 1100.
