I have been looking all over for new bikes and found a few in the RM classifieds. they look like good bikes, but they are all single-speed. Is there any way that I could turn it into a 21 speed or something?

because I wouldn't be dirt jumping. I was just asking in this section because it is about dirt jump bikes. I do agree, most GOOD trails dont need pedaling. However, I do not live near too many GOOD trails. thanks for your help.

well unless you have to pedal on flat ground for a monster gap, you shouldn't need more than one speed for dirt jumping.
Why buy a dirtjump bike then? Buy a bike that fits what kind of riding you'll be doing. Maybe if you tell us what your intended purpose is, we can help you out.
Yeah, maybe. <-------Only slightly more vague than the question.
21 speed?

well, I was just asking if it was possible because I have found a lot of used Dj bikes very cheap. I want to be doing more of an xc type riding but I just found some cheap DJ bikes.
They will not have the right geometry for XC riding, of corse you can use them for that but you be horribly uncomforatble. buy a bike for what it is intened for. I am sure you can find a lot of xc bikes for nowhere near the same price and a Dirt Jump specific bike that is worth buying.
okay, thank you both. I think ill just go with the Iron Horse Sachem 3.0!
