There’s such a unique charm to all your build videos, and whether or not you go to the effort of making a rigid script they’re always seamless as well. Might be my favorite bike content to watch tbh

Oh yes, saw this and am now having a trailside break! Definitely an interesting gear ratio for an average dirt jump bike but I'm not even surprised to see it here🤣🤌

this is exciting ! maybe u should ride some dirt jumps on it that'll be a great video

If I can find some(and I dare ride them) I will 👍🏻

That's definitely one of the sickest bikes I've ever seen! Love the idea of doing this dirt-trial crossover. If it is controllable, then this would actually be the perfect bike for my style of riding. And I love the colour, it just fits 👍 In my opinion the best build besides the silver and the red Hex. Hexes. Whatever...

Thank you! There’s no doubt this type of bike can be ridden to a high standard for street trials, look at Chris Akrigg on his mongoose fireball for proof 👍🏻

That is quite possibly the best bike paintjob I've seen.

Ali, this was so inspiring. I had gone done a DJ path 10 years ago, tried to ride it as a street trials bike, but it was such low quality and heavy, I got rid of it. I would like to revisit this myself, but have so much invested into MTB now. Classy paint work!

Believe me, this is the best video ever. It's perfect. I have watched tones of videos and this contains everything a person may be looking for. I have a DJ bike, and you have given me some ideas to make it lighter. I used to think that those rims were not appropriate to hold the jumps. Thank you for sharing this. Such a hero.

Yeah! Can't say how much I'm excited seeing this build! DJ vs Street trial was exactly question I was thinking for a while and even asked my favourite pro - you. Can't wait your next videos whis proper tests and opinion! Thank you, Ali, you are always doing our life little better. For last year thought about exactly that Dartmoor and Pike combo vs Extention Drax for my training bike for street and trials learning. But bought slightly used Czar Ion 24", for cheap. Hope it will hold some abuse)

I’ll see if I can find one 😋

Very cool to find this. I am considering a tweak along these lines. I am tempted to try and make a modern spin on the original "stock" MTB trials bikes. I hope to take my Specialized P2 DJ bike, add one gear and either a short derailleur or manual swap spring chain tensioner to have a 2-speed bike. I'd like a typical DJ gear ratio along with a trials one. Currently looking at a 30t front with a 14t for DJ and slipping in a 25t for trials. I'd like something that can still rip on the longer street rides and and the DJ park, but also allow me to swap quickly to a trials gear for kicks and hops. Thanks for all the info and inspiration. Always great to see your attention to detail on builds like this.

Fantastic looking build Ali.
