What's a better dirt jumping bike a Trek Jack 3, Cannondale chase, santa cruz jackel, or yeti dj? |
want a new bike can't determine witch one to get The Yeti is bombproof, but kinda pricey and you'll have a harder time with frame warranty if you need to deal with that (but you probably won't). I haven't seen the Santa Cruz up close so I can't comment on it. Everything they do, they do well, so I wouldn't hesitate to buy one of theirs if the components make you happy. The regular versions of the Chase are great bikes.....a friend of mine has one that he uses mostly for urban flat drops and general concrete abuse. It's impressive....I like riding it when he lets me. The actual Aron Chase copy is different in geometry and components....looks like it should shred pro-like. I've been on a Jack a couple times and it feels ok, but I don't have great feelings about Trek frames. They stand behind them without hassle, but I've had two Fuels break and have seen a number of them (also Liquids and Sessions) replaced for similar problems. Maybe they've improved their frames in the freeride/dj category but my money would go to another company first until I knew for sure that Trek has fixed stuff. (Trek is a good company and makes a lot of great bikes.....I'm just talking about this category.) There's nothing like a test ride to sell you on the bike you like best.....ride 'em before you buy one if you have the chance! If you have the money go with the Santa Cruz Jackel. It has the best fork and other componants for dirt jumping. If the price is to much try the Cannondale Chase, then the Yati and last the trek jack 3. Try to stay away from the manitou forks they break. |
