yeah your 36 is like perfect lol, i wish i could afford one haha, and i recently found out that you can get the xt wheelset for $600... so if u can get your hands on the wheelset that would be sick, i think i may try and just get the wheelset aswell in the spring

transition. a dirt jumper can run whatever amount of travel you prefer. I ride a dh bike sometimes to the jumps (i know its stupid but sometimes I feel like riding it) and it has 8 (point something travel) front and rear and its fine. I also run a talas 36 on my flow for dirt jumping specific, and I throw whatever at that fork and it OWNS. downhiller-dirtjumper has a prefect set up for djing.

cuz front wheel doesnt need as much strength as the rear, so keep the front end lite

and yo i suggest going for atomlab pimplite rims actually, im getting one for my back wheel bit heavier but its worth not having to true your wheel after 2 years of hard thrashing:P they are so strong the hubs usually blow before the rim wobbles haha, ill be getting that laced up soon, and running a shimano XT front wheel which will keep the weight down
