Stanners Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Basically im after a hardtail frame which can handle/do the following in one way or another:1. XC/All moutain2. Light Freeriding3. Street (Able to bunnyhop)4. Dirt Jump5. Ridin to the birdsIve been looking at the Identiti Mr Hyde which seems nearly there but not sure if this will jump well but it will be good to some point at the above? I think some sort of freeride frame is gonna be the way. Like street/dirtjump geo with a longer seat tube without tryin to sound daft. Not overly fussed about weight. Can you guys suggest any other frames or your views on Mr Hyde?CheersRob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali C Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 A small Koxx Mixx would be perfect, its pretty much what you have described and exactly how I have built mine!I have put 95-140mm pikes on with 20mm axle so I can bomb it off drops yet wind it down and hit the dirt jumps/4x and xc. The small frame is perfect for everything as well plus it has sliding dropouts to customize the feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
