the oddesys would kick ass, and the alex triple walls would to, i have some haro unsld hubs laced to some mx- 22 alex rims, which are light and strong, and are only 80 dollas at frankfordbike.com i really suggest them

I have been on a Legacy for several months now... I love it.. I will be bummed to see it go.... As for wheels, I have had a set of Atomic Trail Pimps since Dec. and have only had to tension the rear wheel once.... They are pricey, but you get what you pay for....

it's funny how all the big companies are trying to give their bikes that "hardcore" look. whatever happened to the chrome guys?

diesel-
the legacy is a great dirtjumping frame. I suggest getting heavier rims like the hazards or primo hula hoops(double walls) with primo son-of-a-bomb hubs.
having a lighter frame with heavy rims is probably the best setup for dj.
if you havent already, check out trendbmx.com, theyre nicer than the people at danscomp.
