Bottom Line:
I recently rode fabweld's new jump bike, the ER (either for emergency room or Enormous Richard[the big ], I've heard the company intentions were the latter but due to censorship by the media the former was invented). Anyways, the bike, simply put, was absolutely the best jump bike I have ever ridden. The frameset is mega stout without being to heavy and the bike was so easy to control when catching massive air. I know the president of fabweld is former bmx world champion and current AMA roadracing superstar Greg Esser, and I'll tell you what: his years of racing and riding experience have paid enormous dividends in the creation of the ER. The frameset provided me with an excellent basis from which to begin building the ultimate jumper and the design catches tons of looks whenever I have it at the local jumping gounds. In my opinion, if you wanna build the best jump bike you can, start with an ER frameset.
