Dude while I was lurking on here before I made my account I saw so many threads about the jackal. I dunno I guess they're good but they're very pricey and heavy on the wallet.

I'm happy with my Dartmoor Cody, very happy. Tried another guys Cody with the Fox 831 and I'm seriously considering a suspension fork for mine. And saving the rigid for a Freaky build (with left side driver and bmx rear hub)

Ya I came across a used one tho $450 I'm just curios if u have any thoughts on them it's quite hard to find a geared dj used tho

you could always convert to gears.

which model is it? the model with the huge top tube to rack your nuts on? if so, id say pass.

if its the one after it (looks like a standard dj frame). then they are not so bad, aside from the lack of a tapered HT (makes it harder if you need another fork down the road.).

my buddy has the later model one and it rides good. not sure if they ever released an updated version after that.
