    The cro-hawk has been so much fun on the pump track here in south knoxville, tn. im new to that particular sport so I cant speak on how good it is comparatively to the others on this list but I bought it because of the price point. So far so good. I did end up putting some SE bmx chain tensioners on it to keep the chain from slipping. Rides smooth now. Im 5'11 and weigh about 220lbs hope this helps anyone looking.

    Hey i am 6'2" and am looking for an affordable Dirt Jumper for riding on some dirt jumps at my house.
    They are big, small and technical jumps on a slight decent and in a ravine. i want a bike that will not be too small for me so that i can keep my back as safe as possible. but on that will allow me to learn to throw the bike around in the air. out of this list the two best bikes i am looking at for me are the Polygon Trid Hardtail and the Airborne Crowhawk.
    will be my first dirt jump buy so any advice i can get will be EXTREMELY helpful. Thanks heaps!!
    edit: a low bottom bracket would be nice also. and i see on the Crowhawk that it has 3' raised handlebars! that is fantastic. also do you know what currency each of these bikes are???
    that is all 😅

    • @AdrenalineIsLife
      @AdrenalineIsLife  Před rokem +1

      Dirt jumpers typically will have higher bottom brackets by their nature. It helps with bunny hops and jumps. The Trid is going to weigh less. It has an air fork with a beefier design as well as a slightly lower bottom bracket than the Cro Hawk. It's also the more expensive of the two. Currency is US Dollars.
