For 2 grand, you can get a much better frame.

I am sorry but your post makes no sense. The first picture is definately not a freeride frame, I guess you were closer with the second picture though. The holeshot is a cool frame, definately unique unlike a big name brand. If I had the money I would buy something exotic like that.

If I had 2 grand, I wouldnt buy it. The holeshot is the only squishy they carry, not a good predicament to be in.

Gotta say that was confusing. Two totally different purpose bikes. The Gspot kicks some pretty serious butt though.

What type of riding are you looking at if you are dumping the v10?

The bike is a single pivot tank made for jumping off of stuff the way i understand it. I dont think it can perform on the level of a V10 for downhilling, but if you want one, i dont think it will break on ya.
