Is this frame any good?

[G3ars0fDH]

Im looking for a cheap freeride frame. Would this hold up for some pretty hard DHing and djing?

thats an all mountain frame, wouldnt be good dh geo, and i dont think itll hold up to hard dhing, depends where oyu race, you could race it, but idk. . . look at transitionbikes.com then look at store and closeouts or demo bikes, under closeouts they have dirt bags, 7 inches of travel that you could Dh for 699 in different colors too

keep in mind this isnt the DH thread its the freeride thread.

But that being said, I agree.

Hmmm. Not a bad looking frame. Sort of like the Transition Dirtbag with AM geometry. Interesting....

Not the best choice for DH but not a bad looking ride for AM/FR...And only $599.

Id say it would hold up, as long as you are pretty smooth and dont huck it huge. Slap on a 66 and hit the trails. Also look at the Dirtbag though, it is a super sick rig.

Go for a dirt bag frame. You can get em cheep on closeout. Call transition bikes. My friend has had 2 of them. One of the most stout FR frames around and still able to run DH.

exactly, there 699 on closeout on there site, thats only 100 more than the frame your looking at, plus its a hell of a lot better. As ctrailfreak said, call the guys at TBC

haha I had to chuckle that almost everyone responding was from the Washington area...Yeah, go with the TBC if you can. It will take a lot of abuse if you are planning on more DH oriented riding as you had mentioned.
