Hi all,

New member here from brizzol, I have been getting back on my mountain bike a bit more recently and im already thinking about a new frame!

The frame i have now is a Ruckus DJ that i brought years ago when i was into dirt jumping and have recently sold my Supreme FR frame to 'condense' my bikes into one hoping it would create a better all round bike and it has worked in a way.

Even though it rides much better than both of my previous bikes around local trails i think there can still be improvements, i have been thinking about getting something like a 456, BFE or similar but im swaying towards the 456 mainly because of the cost!

So, how much difference will a steel frame like the above in terms of comfort? as the Ruckus is spine shatteringly stiff, i have been trying to compensate with low psi which have resulted in pinch flats.. doh!

Here is a picture of my bike as is:
