Was thinking of building a DJ up as a dual-duty dirt jump/trailbike...so more of an XC build than most would probably see. I'd want to be able to do 15+mile trail rides on it, then bash it around the dirt jumps comfortably (note: I don't do tricks, just huck). Is this a stupid idea or could it work with that frame?

That's exactly what I have been wanting a Yeti DJ for! It seems to have good geometry for all around riding, especially when mated with an adjustable travel fork. (pike?)
