What is a 'freeride' mountain bike?

That word freeride, a couple of guys from Canada named it - guys that are into mountain bicycling. A freeride has a granny gear, which is the smallest cog in the front of the crank. You can climb anything but it's heavy. It's got seven inches of travel to six inches of travel and it's safe to go down the hill, and it's like you have a motorcycle bike under you.
