Well I'm now in the market for a new bikey. I want something for jumping, 4x, and not over 4 inchs of travel. I rode a Blur4x but I can't afford one, but something similar to it.

I have to get on a plane now from Dallas to Amarillo, but I'll update when I get back.

Giant Trance if you're smooth.

Transition Double maybe.

Mongoose EC-D.

Brodie (I think) made a decent 4X bike.

Morewood Ndiza.

Look used, you can find Ndizas and SXs.

Good list and I would add a Transition BottleRocket size small. I know it's 5" of travel but it rides freaking good and is tossable as hell.

Also IronHorse MKIII could work if you are on the smooth side.

Sinister will have a new frame that would suit your needs coming out in a few months

4.5" or 5.5" travel single pivot(7.875" x 2.0" shock)
sub 7lbs w/shock
68* HA (5" fork 19.7 a2c)
16.5 CS
13.6 BB
15" seat tube
23 TT

Here's a little preview, it's currently nameless and in the proto stages(just got them in wednesday) Mine built up with 1/2 of the final build(ie: heavy) and it weighs 33lbs (per the bathroom scale)

crappy shots with crappy build


bigger shot's can be seen here:

i kinda like that sinister. knowing how nicely the bikes tend to end up when finished, i'm really excited to see the final product. also, what's your status on longer travel black diamond bikes? i heard from someone you'd be producing one soon, but i haven't heard anything. if you could, pm me if you have info, i don't want to jack this thread.
