your not serious are you? cause if you are your a moronHey if it Aluminum it doesn't qualify it as a DJ...
It's a "Dirt Jump Racer".....
You obviously didn't read the Yeti DJ thread didn't you... If not, do a search... lol
no i didnt read that thread...must have gotten deleted?? anywayyy... that bike doesnt look all too special, just another hardtail
What happened to the Yeti DJ thread? What did I miss? Haha. Didn't even click it because I had no interest...
I don't know the price but I will for sure post it up as soon as I hear anything.cute. just don't tell me its $1000
Yeah there are a lot of different hardtails out there. Here is one made by a company with a lot of cool history, with great customer service, and other quality products.
Alright guys, enough about the other thread. Make another thread about it.
This one is for the Tomac.
Cool looking bike. May be more popular with the racers though. I like how there are some riders out there who have all the money in the world to dip into every discipline of the sport and act like they're an instant expert. Anyone who says that dj bikes can't be aluminum are just trying to sound like some hardcore rider, but, in reality, they just can't ride, period. Even though I ride steel everything, I have definitely seen plenty of people throw down on aluminum frames to know that they can be great jump bikes. Tomac knows what's up, so I'm interested to see what the finished product is.
An odd thought occurred to me looking at that Cartel. Why dont a lot of manufacturers use integrated headsets on aluminum bikes? Its easier to machine (aluminum), looks cleaner, lowers stuff, installations easier...
While on bmx bikes integrated is ubiquitous...

some frames do it, but my guess is because steel bearings on aluminum cups, no matter how strong, will eventually eat away at the aluminum, and its alot cheaper to replace a cup then to replace a frame.
this crazy looking **cker wasn't at the door when i arrived, i feel cheated!
