I have decided to buy a dirt jump bike and stop flogging the kona so it can be saved for racing. I really like the Haro 8.1 because it looks like a really decent bike and comes with a very reasonable price range. For specs it is not the greatest but the frame is awsome so i could build upon it. So i was just wondering what your opinion of the bike is is there another good dirt jumper out there for about 1100 bucks? other than norco sassies etc ...... i am 6 foot 2 and plan to get a 13.5" frame.
cheers

Umm Specialized P1 Roughly($1199) or if your not single speed inclined ... roughly around $1500 for a P2, worth a look in any case ..
nice and solid ... upgrade as you go .... www.specialized.com

I had a Norco 125 and they're a pretty sweet dj bike. Frame is pretty tough, unless you're like Naz. Roughly 1600 i think.

a kona scrap goes for around 1200(rough guess)
they have a nice frame and the spec isnt much different to the Stuff.
only the forks, chain and deraileurs are

the haro 8.1 isn't a bad bike.. Alot of people would argue towards a more reputable brand. Perhaps look at buying a second hand bike if your not looking at spending too much.. You might end up with a much better deal and quality
