hey guys, I have a question.

I have been wanting to get into DJ and light freeride for awhile but havent got a bike yet. I really like the transition double frames but I dont have near enough cash for them. Is there a cheap full suspension Dirt jump bike out there that is good? I am looking to buy a full suspension DJ frame for around 500 USD. Is that doable?

thanks

How about:

Doesn't look bad for t he $$$...

I looked at the parker and I think I'm gonna get it. Its got high ratings and I think its a cool bike. plus you cant get one at that price anywhere, even used.
thanks guys.

oh, and does anybody know if the parker frame would work with a 150mm travel fork, it says its designed for 100 to 130 but does it really matter?

use the 130, my friend has it and it is really nice.

A know a kid with 1 and he has a 66vf 150mm on it, its a little big, but if your riding it at a mountain, its appropriate. For the DJs and park, id stick with a smaller fork.

I think I'll do an old cheap-ass dirt jumper with around 120-130mm, anybody got anything as to the cheapest of the cheap(but still good) DJ forks?

sorry for the dubl post, but on the same note, would the rockshox tora 302 coil u-turn work as a DJ fork?
prob not but just asking to make sure...
