I'm gonna play it out here. Why not just get an xc frame (on sale, so hopefully super cheap) and customize it?

Like, what did we do before the DJ frame was invented? Uh huh. :D

I rode tiny little Alloy kinesis XC frames before DJ bikes were a thing. Think I was paying £60 for them. (direct from factory). It was back in the 90s tho.

Nostalgia... isn't what it used to be

Putting high rise bars on tiny GT Zaskar frames for dual slalom and whatnot was pretty common here.

A zaskar with a chain device, shorty stem and high risers was a proper do it all bike. See also JMC’s specialized M4. But let’s not pretend they were as good as the crop of dj specific bikes that came after and are now available relatively cheap.
