I've been reading a lot of threats about dirt jumpers for tall guys. I think I've narrowed it down to the Rocky Mountain flow 2 or the Kona shonky. Both of which have a top tube approximately 24 inches long. My question is is there anything else I should be looking at that's in the 24-inch plus category?
I also looked at the transition TOP but I think it's about 23.5 inches.

Also does anyone have any leads on four piece 4 inch rise handlebars? Immortis looks like they're sold out not making anymore and stout bikes isn't answering any emails?

Thanks

You could go with 5"s and a low front-load stem:

But, be patient with STOUT. It's one guy who is doing meticulous work in his machine shop and riding & building trails. Maybe message him on pinkbike also?

He could also do your frame. Check out this guy's custom:

Check out Black Market bikes. Carter makes long stuff but also does customs.
