He could be really fancy and get a purple like lever and a blue rear calliper you go with the frame

[@roryryan980]

Joel Hazlett yes! That would look mint, love the customization options with hope and their quality is unmatchable just wish there products would be a bit cheaper.

[@travisgoble8039]

It would be mint

[@seanhornchek6440]

the hope reach and bitepoint knobs are kinda sharp, if one ends up grabbing the lever body I think it would hurt more than other models.

probably in the pipe lines. Spoke to them about building a DJ fork and they said they could not as a pro rider would need to ride them first aka Matt. I know i would buy one if they released one coming from a motorsport background would tie my two passions together

[@thierryatkinson3108]

Fork: Ohlïns RXF 36 coil 100mm travel Brake: Shimano XTR Cranks: Rotor inpower MTB DM 165mm

[@geko8096]

You don't want a coil fork on a dirt jump bike

[@CaseyStonehouse]

Geko he has a coil on there now, it’s a fox with plush internals which means a coil conversion...

[@devildoglcpl]

32 (front tooth count)÷13(rear tooth count) × 26" wheel diameter = 64 gear inches. That is a hard heavy fast gear that will actually slow you down in reaching top speed. Most BMX racers, either 20" or 24" cruisers like to be in the area of 55 gear inches. Right now, I ride 60 gear inches and I find it just easy-er enough to get up to top end more quickly, and maintain top end longer without burning my self out. Being with dirt jumping, you're relying on your pump mostly, you might find dropping two teeth in front, putting you dead on 60 gear inches will be beneficial. You get up to top end quicker, with less effort. In case, you case or something.

[@mangoshake]

This needs more attention since Matt did mention pedaling.

[@robertoreilly6256]

And what about when he needs little pedaling inbetween jumps(pump wouldn’t give him that)

[@babyyoda2190]

But he has an oval chainring so the dead zone is about 60

[@quicheboy5971]

When is ur red bull project being released?

[@hondacota4rt]

I would rethink the tubolito tubes. At crankworx this weekend you could see a couple of tire blow offs, and all of them had these tubes.

[@jamespachebat6707]

I'd rather run maxxis welter weight tubes bit stronger and almost as light

[@tomgannan6845]

thats only because all the riders use them so they are the only ones that can blow up there lol

[@bobbydigital7482]

Valentin Maissen that’s why cushcore and tubeless is the way to go...allows you land way more sketchy...I use it on my la bomba and I only ride park and street

[@danellison7953]

I’ve been waiting for Matt to be sponsored by ohlins for ages actually would be sick 🤘

[@devildoglcpl]

You may want to look into Profile for a few different crank options. There are a lot of trail riders that use the Profile Elite crank sets with 22mm Ti spindle and Ti spindle bolts. They are spline drive and I believe come in a 168mm leangth. They use a 104bcd 4 Bolt spline drive spider with color options or a 5 bolt (I forget the bcd on that) also with color options. Options for crank arms colors are black or chrome. The crank arms are hollow cr-mo. Light, stiff and strong with the Ti options

[@herbertzielinski8505]

Fork: definitely team up with Öhlins, Fox is second-best if you can't. Brake: Trickstuff Piccola is super light, get the Trixer hose thing for barspins. Cranks: keep the current ones bc you can't get much lighter, or maybe do the custom colours on Raceface's Next cranks. Bar: if Gusset does a carbon bar, get that to save some weight.

[@crusoefawkes986]

We think alike.

[@coilmotorworks]

I use Profile elite hubs, single speed and no brake tab front. The hubs are laced to Loaded AMX rims. I weigh 250 lbs and have had no issues even with some hard landings.

[@TwoShortNZ]

Matt I was sad to see you did not make it to Rotorua. I was looking forward to see you compete and complete an event at Rotorua.😀

[@gw3616]

Definitely go with the öhlins. Extremely well made with high swedish quality.

[@ssclonelq9]

as another fellow car guy, this was a great video like always! i like specs and details, keep it up.

[@colegermain2825]

That would be sick an Ohlins dj fork and also the Trickstuff Trickster might be worth looking into with a Sram G2 ultimate maybe? Also, the Sram XO1 dh cranks have a grippy pattern on them which could help with catching tailwhips which could be beneficial.

[@gabrieledalessio6707]

Really nice bike and explained perfectly in all details! I think "racesport" version of all continental tires are not tubeless ready... only "protection" ones are tubeless ready accordingly to conti

[@harrymarcroft844]

Hope blue brake and rotor with pink bolts and reservoir cap, Ohlins or rockshox pike DJ fork, Hope cranks. Maybe a fabric magic 50 to 01 saddest aswell. Keep up the quality videos!

[@joed899]

Magura brakes are really light. I have mt7 and mt5 and they're both a composite carbon lever and master cylinder. It feels like plastic to touch but great power and modulation in the one kit. For a DJ set up, you may want to look at the mt4(?), the cross country calliper.

[@jakes3565]

Can you run less spokes in front tire as the “triangle” in the front rim is bigger and also titanium chain if haven’t already got it 🤨

[@jack.young_11]

Ohlins fork would be sick, remember to puts the decals on the wheels, get a hope brake in blue, cranks get whatever is light.

[@pknark]

Im tempted to order that frame and build a dirt jumper over the next year

[@lewisgraham1668]

I'd love to see a blacked out for such as the rockshox pike dj with oil slick decals as well as maybe a oil slick bmx style crankset and I love the idea of either a blue hope brake or a sram brake with the sram oil slick bolts🤣🤣

[@eartharrow6772]

The saddle is sooooo sweet need to see more super seat grabs or decades on slowmo to show off that super saddle

[@konnerlachnit]

Don't know if you have already looked into this, but if you do want to run a mechanical gyro you try using TRP's HY/RD caliper which is a hydraulic conversation caliper, it is kind of the best of both worlds. Ive run a pair on a CX bike and they were surprisingly, awesome! I may even put one on my Alcatraz...

[@jakeevans1129]

Shimano Deore XT brake 4 pot, either an Ohlins for or the new Marzocchi DJ fork spotted on Max Fredrikssons bike and hope cranks in blue

[@rokmakovec2797]

For brakes you should go with Hope components. I am using them and they are awesome and you can choose about million different colors.

[@dawnkangas2968]

Absolutely awesome 😎 colors

[@seanwelden4284]

Totally right about the brake bro. You don't even need a hydro. I run a avid bb7 mechanical. There's a mtb and a road version. If you get the road calipers you can run a bmx lever, which are cool. But dont try and use the mtb caliper with bmx lever.

[@MrBritboy123]

That hub though 🔥😍

[@dillonhayes3402]

Ohlins would be sick just for something different but obviously awesome performance too

[@ewanmontgomery4520]

I think that custom öhlins would be sick as no other dj rider rides öhlins. For the brakes I think you should go for some brake force one h2o brakes as the lever is very discreet also they use water instead of brake fluid which is very cool.

[@christianesfelt5935]

Magura brakes to match the green logos on the "inside" of the frame. Or trickstuff brakes to save some weight.

[@ericm8811]

Hey Matt Jones! You can get below 10kg by keeping that hi rise handlebar and cutting the steer tube and ditching the top spacer! Ride ride ride!

[@charliewheeler7742]

If it was mine I’d get chrome hope parts I.e. headset spacers, brakes, maybe pedals, and seat clamp. Then I’d get silver halo stickers for the rims, and a full set of silver titanium bolts. Also a silver ab oval chainring and chain. And then finally a silver rockshox pike ultimate fork.

[@Tzestos]

you can remove paint off the fork's knobs to save 3g :)) you can also try an old avid xo brake cuz it's pretty light and powerful

[@brianmendiola]

Odyssey hollow pin key chain!! They’re gonna stop making them and you can take the pin out with an alen key! it’s strong and light

[@timgrant4519]

Hi Matt. Have a look at Hope tech Trial Zone and maybe a 140 floating rotor as they come in colours too. Maybe some Hope crankset too

[@timgrant4519]

Maybe worth looking at Ti spokes too. Oh and gusset oil slick chain

[@ferdinandlehmeier8320]

I’m running an Magura MT4 on my dirtjump und I’m super stoked with the performance und power. Could be worth a try

[@n8m837]

Formula 6 bolt 160mm disc rotor claims 95g, and absolute black (same specs) claims 82g Titanium cog if it exists? Just replace steel with titanium, and use aluminium with titanium when safe (excluding Gusset, although custom Gusset composite pedals for the pin placement?). What's the seat post clamp bolt made of? Does the steerer tube need to be that long? Lighter spokes and nipples if possible, safe, and allowed by Halo

[@LORDHARRY101]

Go for a hope stealth X2 in custom purple and blue parts, would look very trick, and custom online fork are rad, arguably hope rotor to match

[@jackSmith-mv8fc]

Ohlins with pink ohlins decals if you can get them would look wicked or even a custom painted set of zebra print ohlins forks to match your DJ bike pink chain ring would look mental too

[@rileychoat4868]

you should defiantly put some scooter grips on the side without the break leaver they are very long and very comfy, ethic scooters have the most comfortable grips and a little tip most Australians like me do is put your grips in some hot water for 10-15 minutes then give them a good stretch and the slide them on your bars makes your grips longer and softer

[@ElliottPackham]

Marzocchi bomber fork, and a magura brake, hope cranks

@@felixpbmx the piccola is the XC brake, i think it's lighter, but you could be right.

[@henrymarsh4382]

Maybe consider BMX cranks? Profile cranks come in all lengths (including 160mm), and then you can get appropriate titanium axles. Would look sick in chrome on an alloy frame, and pretty different. Might need a signature Oval ring though! Forks: 36 chassis is pretty much perfect, as you know, but its the inside of the forks that counts! Maybe look into some smaller companies that could tune how you want? Vorsprung? MRP? Andreani? Push? Custom Hope single lever disc brake, a merge between the Race Evo X2 and Odyssey Monolever

[@henrymarsh4382]

RNC Ti 3 piece cranks are back on the market, they come as small as 155mm

CRANK MUST TRY You should really try out a set of Rotor R-Hawk 165mm cranks with 32T O-Ring. I'd rate them stiff as Saint's but better weight, SUPER custom build, insane quality. They are just like Shimano - Fit'n forget.

[@steezymtb5876]

I'd say that if you can get the Öhlins forks to work, you should do that, if not, well, many guys on the tour seem to run the Pike dj forks. Maybe see how they work for you?

That is such a sick bike! I wonder what the final bill for it is as it sits now. Matt is a great guy, love these videos! And he's incredible at riding!

If you have the opportunity to run Öhlins - do it! Brake and Cranks - Shimano XTR.

[@chrissebrg5508]

Öhlins would be cool please use the mt8 as brake and crank I don't know

[@nateisnotemo]

it’d be rad if Absolute Black made you a chainring in the same yellow colour as the Marin lettering!

[@dashansel3896]

A black and yellow ohlns fork would match really well if possible

[@connorstain3405]

you should use the RockShox SID Ultimate Carbon RLC3 forks and the SRAM X01 DH Crankset - BB3083 these are both carbon ans should get that weight down, for the brake you should use the Shimano XTR M9020 Trail Hydraulic Disc Brake Set this has a carbon lever and is a cross country brake so wont have too much power.

[@392_isak9]

Tip: I ride with a hope enduro 4 rim at the back, and front i ride with a Carbon dt swiss rim, Use a carbon rim up front to get it under 10kg

Riding a magura mt8 raceline on my dj bike and it's awesome! But of course you don't need that much of a brake on it I got it cause i was lucky!

[@themagicillusions]

The öhlins would be sick but it will definitely be heavier than what you’re running now and if you run it at max pressure as I’m sure you do with jumps why even bother? You could try some sram xo1 dh cranks or descendant cranks, they’re pretty light in weight and if you get a smaller chainring but also downsize the sprocket in the rear to maintain the same gearing, possibly a 28 up front with a 9 in the rear it will save weight. A carbon seatpost maybe?

[@cliffsangelsphotography]

You should try out Onyx Vespyr hubs. Quiet bikes are sick! And insanely quick with zero drag and instant engagement
