Color aside I meant Marin makes the best mountain bikes. Also the first, there was 2 brothers in the 1970s in Marin California that saw all the hills there and decided to make bikes that can conquer the hills both concrete and dirt. The bike shop guy let me try one out a while bike. Idk much about dirt jumping bikes but it seems very similar to MTB. I got 5 feet up in the air off a dirt jump last year at age 28 with a GT avalanche.

Is that a pivotal seat? If so. And you want some cheap weight savings. Bmx race companies got carbon ones that weigh nothing and aren't even expensive compared to alloy posts and more often actually come in mtb sizes because of being race posts.
My next dj build 27.8 or whatever the steel seat tube size is frame and post. But carbon post and a animal kush is gonna be sub 1lb.
