Out of curiousity: What would be the absolutely finest and most bling DJ/Urban bike money can buy? Morewood? Cove? What? ...And what equipment would you put on it?

(No, It's not for me, as I'm a useless and fat coward) 😉

NS bikes has some of the best equipped gear I've seen, both in terms of frames and completes. Also, Last is well worth checking out.

Curtis I'd say.

Though I did see a *really* nice jump bike in Sheffield centre the other day, it was either a Last or a Leaf. Gorgeous paintjob and very clean looking frame.

But still, Curtis. Bare, with the fillet brazing or whatever it is.

More of a 4x bike really, but Dan Atherton's custom Ti Commencal. Or a gold plated Hutch Trickstar.

I'm a useless and fat coward

so am i, but it does'nt stop me having a lovely (imho), and completely and utterly overkill bike for my needs which are chasing my 6yr old around the local bmx track and very occasionally attempting to get the very tiniest chink of daylight under the wheels. : )

The Foes Predator is a very nice bike and much more Jump orientated corrected to 100mm fork. A snip at £1099.

I'm often criticized for building this.... just to "try-out" jumping, gets much more kudos than my own paltry jumping ability, although i have discovered an innate ability to survive a crash more than i thought i could.

Love that Commencal, but i'd go for the Curtis if i was good enough to do it justice.
Also the strange twin top-tube Nicolai twin top-tube BMXTB thing i always liked.

Sinister DNA, without question. or alternatively (as the Captain suggests) a Spooky. excellent taste, Captain. Though you'll have to ask Frank nicely to weld one for you.

the Ti Commencal does look pretty nice... mmmmmm ti...

Global Ti always looked interesting.

like this years Yeti DJ, but will stick with last years as nothing would coordinate with turquoise!

Rummages through fotopic archive pics . . . nothing majorly bling in there but as a tool for the job the Predator was pretty damn good - never really gave it a chance though as it was really harsh in the rough stuff.

I don't realy believe in "most bling" anything, it either fits and works well for you or it doesn't, and there's always going to be someone riding a complete shed of a bike better than you anyway.

but have a look at bikes from some of these companies..

Union street bikes
soul cycles
sinister
blackmarket
Superco
quamen
nemesis project
24bicycles
Evil
rancid
staats
Geekhouse
tonic
simtra
