Finished building up my frame a week or two ago. Now that I put some redline tensioners on everything is peachy and she jumps way nicer than the 05 stuff I had. Probably due to lower bb, and a shorter top tub on this Jackal... Anyhow props to Matt at Mojowheels.com for tearing down a complete bike and selling me the frame. Great shop to work with if you haven't already talked to them.

Spec:
S/M SC Jackal Frame Matte Black
Optional SS dropouts with 10 buck Redline tensioners
Diabolus cranks
E-13 Ring/bashguard
Mag 30/ Hope Bulb wheelset with Gusset S/S conversion
80mm Manitou Sherman Jumper
Titec Knock Post (not shown)
SDG Bel-Air seat (not shown)
Maxxis Holy Rollers (once the K-Rads wear out)
Atom Labs Air Corp Stem
Answer Protaper cut down to 25.5"
Hayes HFX-9 (recycled from Stuff)
Sun/Ringle ZuZu pedals
Intense lock on grips/Dangerboy caps

Def. the most fun bike I've had...

[HRDTLBRO]

Hell yea...
That thing is sweet. I don't care who bitches...I think the frame looks killer.

 

[rpk1988]

Sweeettt. Hows the Sherman Jumper?

 

[escapeartist]

I guess I'd ride that...

 

[formermtboarder]

how much was ur wheelset?
the whole bike?

 

[offdawalley]

thats awesome, the gold bars look so nice on that bike

 

[kajo]

I would to anthing for that bike! amazing!!!!!!!!!!!! The sick thing is that you have almost exactly the same setup as I would put on a bike like that!

love it!

 

[stubby]

nice bike, in the pic it kind of looks like your fork is bent.

 

[sayndesyn]

how much was ur wheelset?
the whole bike?

130 for rims, 250 for both hubs..

Whole bike... Mmm. I'm guessing around 1800 if you totalled everything up, but some parts like the diabolus cranks have been on two bikes.

Sherman Jumper rides good. I know someone asked about it. I had to do a bit of work with the spacing on the hope bulb 20mm caps to get it to align correctly with the disc mounts. Dremelled about 5 mm off and all is well. The fork has a little bit of stiction, but that is after 6 months of jumping, so it is due for a rebuild. Very stiff and a nice low ride height though..

Just the beafy front section look me thinks. Unless it was the angle of the photo. All is well with her, made me nervous for a second. I ride so smooth I never destroy forks...

 

[Changleen]

Put some 24"s on it. Nice spec, except for the Manitou IMO. I'm sure they're fine, I just have an irrational hatred of Manitou.

 

[DroppinaNorco]

that bike is sick. id get one if i had any bank to spare.

 

[AirAddict]

really freakin nice rig man... i like the build. i bet it rides pretty sweet

 

[sayndesyn]

Rides bloody hell great. Coming from a 05 Kona Stuff with the same parts pretty much on it this bike is easily twice as much fun in the air and on the back wheel. Been riding it about 4 days a week when I'm not downhilling and it just keeps feeling better.

 

[blt2ride]

Nice! That's a sweet looking bike. To be honest, that is my favorite hardtail...congratulation. Now we need some action pics...

 

[sayndesyn]

Yeah, I need someone that can use a camera and actually rides or at least wants to hang around and shoot... Pretty rare breed..
