Im buying a brand new bike soon, what should i get between those three bikes ?? Specialized demo 7-1, Santa cruz bullit with the totem on front or the Devinci Frantik 2. I think devince and specialized have a lifetime warranty on the frame but not the santa cruz. Btw im looking for a bike with 7'' inches of travel and under 40 pounds and i want to spend 3-3.5 grand

check the fine print on that warrenty. Crash replacement isn't what everyone thinks it is ( you crash, break bike they send you a new frame no questiosn asked). Its replaced at reduced cost plus ship and some of the times they won't even do that. My choice out of the list if you can get one is the Devinci

i wish i could try em all before buying one... As for my kind of riding, its more freeride than downhill so lots of jumps, drops, wallrides and stuff like that

If you want under 40 then the Demo 7 is out. I rode a guys brand new Demo 7 just like the one pictured and it must have weighed almost 45 lbs. It was very heavy. I had a Bullit and they can easily weigh 35-36 lbs built to huck. I don't know about the Devinci.

i would go with the bullit, it will last you longer then the other bikes and can be built up in more ways. i think its better if your bike will have to last you for a while. if ur getting a new bike every year or something go with the devinci or specialized.

Frantik cause it bears the name of a song from metallica and it's handmade in canada

the demo is a very heavy bike. so keep that in mind. the bulit is very good however I don't think the warranty is good. the frantik can take a beating and has a goood waranty so thats what I would suggest.
