mmmkay...are you a midget or do you just lose interest in things quickly?

A 12 year old that rides at my local dj park just broke the rear subframe on his...of course, he was ripping a 32 foot stepdown at the time.

Good bike for kids. But it has limits and is small. I know a few kids riding them on whistler mountain. They do the job till you become over 5'4

This is my opinion, ehich is on an '03 spec. CRAP, the X-fusion shock is ****, the suspension feels terrible and the fricken frame looks like a lard-arse did a huge drop on it and bent the frame... *vent over* In my opinion there are better bikes you could look at.
