Im going for a hardtail in the spring next year ..

but have problems to find anything that suits me well ..

looking for a good trials bike, but still a bike that i can use for street riding and dirt jumping.

i want it to be like 13", light and good brakes like hs33 ..
maybe bikes like the ashton ed tounge but cheaperrr ..

any suggestions ?

please tell me where to buy it if you got any tips

the planet x new jack flashes seem to build up as good trials oriented, but still general use hardtails.

Jack Flash is saweet, but heavy. All the dj/street bikes weigh more than my x-girlfriend and that is heavy. Durability is great, but if you have a heavy frame you can be somewhat limited in trials specific moves, then again I can be a weenie and not real good with heavy things (i.e. x-girlfriend).

I have a woodman elite.. its pretty good.. I love how mine looks (I have one of the old ones that is pretty much 100% anodized blackw ith no stupid brand names and stuff like that) I run it as a street/trials combo though rightnow its mostly set up for street. For some reason the way mine is set up makes it extremely hard to manual.. (probably trials geometry too) you really have to get go way back to get to the balance point but since its sooo high up it is really easy to loop out.

Jack flash or elite as others have said- but the flash is not that heavy in terms of other street/dj style bikes....most come in over 6lbs, flash is under 5, I believe. and theyre clearing them out on webcyclery....

he is 100% correct. I have a Jackflash with a PX SL 420mm fork on it and it rides trials super sweet, but i can still rock out on the street and in the parks
