ive been reading a lot of forums about freeriding being dead or at least dying and after looking at a lot of bike lineups for 2015 im starting to believe them
im looking to purchase a freeride bike newer than 2010 (6-7 inches under 38lbs) and cant find any. if anyone could leave the names of a few it would be appreciated
Check out the Product section at the top of the page. You don't have to look past your own name. A Scott Voltage would be a sweet option.
Specialized's Enduro EVO is another good option: http://www.vitalmtb.com/product/guide/Bikes,3/Specialized/Enduro-Expert…
Norco Truax
Banshee Darkside
Transition TR250
Santa Cruz Driver 8 (on the heavy side)
Or a lot of new(ish) ENDURO bikes can be built up as freeride bikes depending on your weight.
For example, you take a Yeti SB66 and put a 36 up front, coil in the back, and dual ply tires on and you have something that can tackle most terrain. Of course ":Freeride" is open to interpretation so ENDURO bikes may not fit what you are looking for.
