Nice man, throw some thinner pedals on there and your golden.
Will do. Seller told me it was a 2011 frame. Not sure if it is. I can not complain picked it up for couple hundred bucks. The only thing I can see I need to replace right away. Is the front quick relies axle. Handle broken off. Going to take it out for the first time tomorrow
Need some input. Doing trails around Okanagan BC. Buillit is a 9 speed and the hills are kicking my ass, is it worth changing the rear cassette too a 10-11 speed I like the simplicity of 1 gear leaver. Or should I change the front to a 2x. Yup new to the sport!
gearing is strength and preference. if you are really having trouble than i would go for a 2x setup, but if its manageable stick with a 1x setup and go with a low tooth driver and a 11-36 cassette, and if you still need more check out the RAD cage and 40-42 tooth high gear. thats a lightweight way to get a granny gear. i run a 34tooth up front and a 11-36 in the back and thats good for me.

Thank you jameshoke and whitebullit for you input. For sure it comes down to money! Right now I am running a 36 tooth on the front, going to change this. To change to a 10 or 11 speed looks like it will cost $300-400 for the parts. Will probably just have to man up to the hills, I guess that's why they call it a "push bike" Tires I am running kenda nevegal 26x2.5 would it be worth reducing the width may be to a 2.1 for less resistance
2.1 would be drastically too skinny but 2.5 nevagals arent exactly the best rolling tire. even a 2.35 would be a faster rolling tire without sacrificing too much grip.
Hi guys - i've got one of these bullit's now as well, will post a pic up soon, just wondering, the rear spring i've got is too heavy meaning i can't get the correct sag...the website i'm looking at is asking for the wheel travel?? I've no idea what this is, anyone got a link to the bikes dimensions so i can get myself the correct coil for my weight?

if you tell me the year of the bullit, how much you weigh and the brand of rear shock i will tell you exactly what you need to know.
