a hardtail mayby the norco sasquatch with 140mm travel and 10mm wont make that much difference

i mean a full bike not just frame

IMO for freeride, for something that will last, for œ800 go for a hardtail

If oyu want full sus for freeride, your gonna need to put an exta "1" infront of the "8" [;)]

buy clever...buy second hand

get a good full susser for that money..make sure they have a reciept for the frame at least for warranty purposes

I'd agree with Dan67, this one is around your price range

The 2005 one on that site priced at œ699 is a 20" model so unless you're about 6'2" plus it would be like riding a garden gate with wheels on

well actually i'm 6ft 4 so will have a look

That DaBomb looks sweet, i would suggest getting that and building up one hell of a freeride bike.

If he's 6'4" the Coiler at œ699 would be a very good option and a 20" frame would probably be spot on for him.
I'm 5'10" so I usually get 17 or 18" frames so that would be miles to big for me, should be fine for him though
