  1. ๐Ÿ™‚ the xc is cheaper that the freeride but the only difference is the
    shorter crank arms and the skinnier tyre rite? I was goin to get the
    freeride but i thought the xc is cheaper so should i get that enstead?
    Im going to change the tire anyway after the one on ther gets old. the
    XC is $514 & the freeride is $520. ya see i would get the freeride if it
    was those prices but around here i think i could get the Xc for much
    cheaper that both of those prices.So what should i do? Get the Xc or
    just stick to the freeride? Cuz ther bothe prety much the same.

  2. depend what kinda of riden are you going to be doing. Are you going to
    do the big drops and harsh terrain or keap it a little more safe and not
    as risky. Because the xc is perfect for someone who is going to be
    somewhat ruff and the free ride is perfect for someone like me who
    doesnt think before they act and just does something.๐Ÿ˜„

  5. somewhere on 'Kris Holm' (http://krisholm.com)'s site there's a page
    with specifications about each of his uni's, with what type of uni would
    be best for your style of riding and everything. checkitout.

  7. The rim on the XC is slightly thinner too. The combination of the
    thinner tire and thinner rim make for less rolling weight to lug around.

  8. i personally wouldn't let a 6 dollar price difference influence my
    decison, rather, i would think about what kind of riding i'm going to
    do
    for me, i have the freeride in the mail and will be trying bigger and
    bigger drops
    some people would be better suited to a lighter XC, the only reasons i
    didn't get an XC (which is plenty strong) is that the cranks are shorter
    and the rim is slimmer
