Ok, i'm bored so have decided to try and work out what i'm going to do with my money for the rest of the year.

At the moment, i'm hoping to build up a short travel freeridey bike (read: bottlerocket) so do i stick everything from the big hit on that (150mm 66rc2x, saints, 2007 m4's etc) and scrap the big hit, or should i keep the big hit and completely start again with the new frame? except i'd be putting 888's on the big hit and the 66's on the bottlerocket [:)]

Thing is, i'm hoping to go to france next year, and i'm not sure if something like the bottlerocket would handle being thrown down the side of a mountain, i've heard that its good. but is it good enough?

suggestions welcome [:)]

Something round here tastes bad. Could be plain old bad taste.

    new frame.

    Ideally, a FR frame needs to be able to pedal the ups, according to the reviews or the bottlerocket, its not a pedal up bike.

    but if you want one, get one.
