I have a steel DJ bike and a dh race bike. I need something in between that can do trail rides with 10 mile climbs and pedal well but still jump well. I want it to be really stiff with a thru axle rear preferably. About 5" travel. Can a trance hold up to some big jumps, with a 150mm fork? Otherwise I am considering frames like an intense tazer vp, morewood ndiza, possibly a spitfire or rampant although I am not wild about the bushing thing.
Do any of the 6" bikes jump good enough to hit bmx type jumps?
I am 5'8" with a 32" inseam. I ride a medium dh bike and a 22" top tube jumper. So I can probably get full leg extension on the 4x type bikes with a big seat post.
Thoughts?
