bike shopping

[Dan]

I'm looking to get into a full-suspension bike this year. I want to
get one that is light enough to ride up hill and cross-country, but
big enough to take some drops (5-6 feet) and take some abuse. I am
looking at the Norco 4by4. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Dan

Six foot drops, right.

A bike that can handle 6 feet drops will not be light.
