Awesome stuff! I always wanted one of those as a kid!

I am just happy every time I see passionate, knowledgable people not following trends and because the things they put out are indeed based on performance and quality first... you end up creating not-long-after modern legends Big Grin

They is just amazing. And they made a 4X bike (kinda)...

I find it funny now seeing riders on 29er "jib" bikes an thinking weren't these called play bikes not so long ago an have you tried 26" for "jibbing" it would be SO much more practical. An stonger, an bettererBig Grin

It's also really frustrating that the "jib" style of riding got industry acceptance right as the default mountain bike became less suitable for it. Maybe it's because these companies feel compelled to prove, via bmx pro sponsorships, that their endurbro 29" rigs can be thrown around.

Which kinda raises the question (that everyone in this thread knows the answer to), why do they only feel the need to show off that aspect of their bikes NOW?

The new vitus on the homepage looks like it has potential to be a good play bike. No clue how strong they are though

If you could short stroke it somehow it could be maybe 120 or 110mm.
