awesome bike with one of the longest wheelbases on the market. Let’s wait on the new YT Tues 2.0. The price and the specs may be more interesting. But currently I prefer more the status II.

I dunno. The bighits seem more dh gut i guess this would have to be better if they are going to stop making bighits
- 3 2
this is way more dh oriented, that's the whole reason for building this bike is to have a cheaper alternative to the demo for downhill racing
- 4 3
yes, one of each generation, none of which compare to anything better than an 06 Kona Stinky (which I quite strongly dislike)
- 4 0
yes actually, didn't feel nearly as good as tons of other bikes I've ridden (felt about the same as a norco shore)
- 3 3
no, I haven't owned a bighit, and I don't plan on it, I have however ridden for hours at a time on multiple years of bighits and didn't particularly like them any more than my old Norco Six, I prefer something with much more refined geometry
- 3 2
A big hit is a way better bike then a norco six. i have owned one for almost a year now. norco frames crack like homegrown DLC.
- 2 2
no, I've had one frame that wasn't one of the recall frames crack on me, not once have I or anybody I know cracked a Norco frame (with the exception of the ones they recalled)
- 2 1
not really Norco's fault that they got a shitty batch of Aluminum from their supplier...besides, I'm not saying Norco's are good, my whole point is that the bighit isn't very good
- 2 1
sorry, I hate to break it to you but there are just so many better bikes than the bighit for the price, such as the Cannondale Perp 3, Devinci Frantik 1, Devinci Wilson 1, Kona Operator FR, Mongoose PinnR, Santa Cruz Bullit, and Yeti 303R DH

^^^knightridersix you just showed that you have no clue what ur talking about because you dont even have the demo in that list and that is the most used bike on the market

i think if you dont like the bighit, dont get one. but stop acting like a wanker to the people that like them

cool story bro, shit like that happens, still doesn't mean it's anywhere near the amount of snapped Konas...

tstep3 cracked a non recall norco if you can read. norcos are good for people that hit 2 foot drops like u!

I ride a santa cruz you fucktard, I cracked a norco myself, I'm not claiming that their good, I'm just claiming that they're better than bighits
- 1 0
who cares whether I've owned one or not, I still have hours of ride time on different generations of bighit

alright and to end you twos argument. 2011 and older norcos are nearly the same thing as big hits with slightly different angles
- 1 0
idk about better angles because some of them have very steep head angles and high bb but i guess it all comes down to personal preference
- 1 1
ok have have awesome idear...if you dont like big hits dont buy one andd if you dont like norcos...dont buy one! simple. i like bighits and norcos. just worry about your own bike.

@knightridersix04 get your head out of your ass. My friend owns a big hit and he launches shit bigger than you can imagine. You know what else is great about the big hit? When someone's being an ignorant prick the owner of the bike can just torque the shit out of your head in the linkage.... Try that on a norco jackassssssssss

I don't ride a f*cking norco, I just think that they have better geo, is there anything you don't understand about that?
