Purchased At:
Pricepoint.com
Strengths:
VERY strong frame, light weight, durable bushings, beefy Zerostack headset, good geometry
Weaknesses:
The rear shock. Rebound is pretty lousy, spring is ridiculously heavy for myself as a 160 pound rider. Swapping it out with a Fox Van R a little later

I built this bike using a kit from Wheelworld and the frame from pricepoint. its a great bike. i could compare my bike to my buddy's bighit '07.
Bike Setup:
Marzocchi Drop Off Triple dual crown, Hayes 9, SunRims S-type, FSA gravity Moto X crank. Pretty much loaded for DH and racing except for that lousy rear shock.
Bottom Line:
Great frame, love it!!. Pricepoint could equip this frame with a better rear shock like a Roco or Vanilla. but this shock can do the trick. I have the bike set up to pound jumps and drops. and it handles it very well.
