SX Trail vs. SC Heckler

minimole

Hi all,

I know neither are designed for dirtjumping, but which would be better?

Im guessing the SX is chunkier/heavier/stronger, and the Heckler is lighter/more climb-able?


Any thoughts on the two?

The SX trail will mind you abusing it less than the heckler, but the heckler is undoubtedly the sexier bike.

The new Heckler is awesome - I wouldn't use it for dirtjumping though. It's more of a light freeride or all mountain rig; you build the heckler how you want it, it has 20mm less rear suspension travel than the SX trail.

Here's mine:

You seem to do a lot of everything, and therefore i wouldnt like to heave A SX round a welsh trail centre (You do live in Wales dont you??

Nothing wrong with heaving an SX round a welsh trail centre. Just means you have to ride it at mach-10 before it starts getting hairy!

north shore kid

as much as i love SC's id have to say that the SX is better for dirt jump/freeride stuff but the heckler couldb be pretty good depending on the setup.

id say sx. for jumping/freeride it seems stronger than the heckler, even if it is a bit heavier.

I said hit the brakes not the tree!!
