bighit fsr, kona stinky or giant faith 2

[Old Anonym]

looking at buying a new bike and cant decide weather to get the big hit fsr, giant faith 2 or the kona stinky, like dowhill and drops for the most part, so which one, there all priced within 350 bucks of each other

please email me when you decide,,,
and tell me what you bought and why? i am having the exact same dilema but i have added in the iron horse 7point3 as well... personally i think the stinky's bob to much when you get out of the saddle, but maybe it was the way it was set up? (any opinions) big hits... not to sure on the 24'rear wheel. havnt taken one for a ride yet... as for the giant faith 2 looks good but have heard real poor reviews... another is the iron horse yakuza kumicho. which is sick! but you cant pedal it up hills at all!
let me know...

i have a big hit fsr and its great you dont even notice 24 inch rear wheel and it has taken a few big hits and its still in great shape

It depends on what year stinky it is. The 05 works great. All of the other years pretty much suck.

I`ve got the 05 Stinky,it does well,only the fork is shit(mine iss tuned to a JuniorT),otherewise the rebound is much too fast,in my opinion.
The Stinky iss perfekt for hardcore Freeriding.

This is no comparison Giant faith all the way...better fork and 26 inch wheel...i have the giant dh comp and i can assure you giant makes their shit right

I have been looking at these too and i think that the faith 2 is the best choice. it has 8 in of travel with no bob and pretty much top of the line equip. except for the pedals,tires, and if you want to be one of the best bikes out there slap a 888 fork on. but other than that this bike is perfect, aluxx sl alum frame(super stong and light) and 8 in of plush travel makes this bike perfect for as hard of DH out there and strong enough for huge drops and jumps plus it is extremely balenced on the ground and in the air.

get the Faith2

Dude get the BigHit FSR thats what I got and its really awsome u got 6 3/4 inches of travel and its the best BigHit out there.
