Hi guys, im into all styles of riding from xc to downhill/freeride anything really! , recently ive been wanting to get bigger on my jumps etc and been practicing more in the air.. im wanting to get better, throw some whips in etc, anything ! eventually.. lol i currently ride a orange alpine 160 and im nearly finished building up a cotic bfe hardtail with 150 ctd fox forks on it for xc and.. playing about on! will this do already for jumping, should i just get this bike built and use that or will i need a dirt jump bike if its going to be easier? ive been heywood jump park and they are all on like bmx type bikes, what shall i do guys! any help would be great 🙂 thanks!

The BFe will probably be alright but a proper dj bike will be way better. 150mm forks are too much really.

You don't need a jump bike to jump...
When I were a lad, all we had was grifters that weighed as much as an elephant seal, choppers and rubbish bmx bikes and we still got rad. 🙂

Bfe'll be totally fine.
