i fount a 2005 raleigh 2500 and a 3500xt 6-7" travel bike,but its a 20" frame "large" and im right at 5'11... didnt know if anyone could give me good advice on this frame ..Might be to big for me or what ? ...but i have a 06' marzhocci 66 rc front fork, right now, and im riding a large bighit but its a 19" frame, and wanting to upgrade to a new frame .
so any help would be appreciated..both frames are 399.99 brand new with a mantiou 6 way swinger..is there any difference in the 2500 and 3500 ?. and plsu would this be a better upgrade from my big hit and would a 20" frame be to big for me im 5'11 love to jump and drop and such, big hit is a large also and it feels fine but didnt know if different bikes are different

I think a 20 would be way too big for you man. I'm around 6'6" and I'm on a 19" Kona Stinky. As for reliabuility.... I've seen the Rams take some serious abuse. There was a guy that posted on here about his, and he said it rocked.He even posted some video's and picks of it in action.
