Hi there,
Can anyone recommend any easy (5.5+) sport routes in the New River area? Thanks!

I second that, that's probably at least grade V.

I don't think I've ever seen a sport climb easier than 5.7. Real easy climbs usually are too ledgy or blocky to fall on, even when bolt protected. just an observation i guess :O

One 5.5 and it is at beer wall. Also a 5.7 that shares some of the same bolts and a 5.6 immediately to the left of them.

two 5.6's at tattoo, as well as two 5.7's.
