Hey Phil I know you and Seth have both done videos about what makes a good entry level mountain bike. Thanks to those tips, I purchased a MTB 1 year ago but it has a SR SUNTOUR Fork and it clearly explains in a warning sign in the fork that I should not be jumping with this bike. After a year riding, I have improved tremendously. I am even learning how to jump but I need a better bike. Can you and/or Seth do a video of what components are important in a bike to do some jumps and ride more aggressive. It doesn't necessarily has to be a full suspension it could also be a hardtail. Thank you!!!

I love that cities are doing this for the community but I wish they were made for everyone. Those trails would be perfect for adaptive MTB, except for the jumps that don't look to be rollable.
