Best Bike for First Build

What's the best bike for a 100cc engine? I'm looking for a pretty recent Hardtail. I'm 6'1 so I need something big I'm thinking about a used Ozark Trail Ridge or a GT Agressor. Used bikes are also fine for me. Budget of $300 for the bike

Here is one on an aluminum frame. Works fine but I wouldn't recommend it especially off road.

It's actually pretty good on ground clearance. You could probably bolt a bigger wheel on the front.
Here's mine that is in progress (fingers crossed my gas tank shows up today)

I was talking about the hyper lol. And you were talking about having larger wheels. Also larger front wheels tend to give better offroad handling, atleast that's what the moto cross folks tell ya
