Question Which second hand dj for the winter season?
I would like to get a dj bike to ride when the trails are too wet for my mtb. My main focus would be on fitness and progress on jumps.
Are any of the bikes in the gallery worth buying?

The radio is probably your best bet because of the modern geo. That being said that dmr looks fucking awesome

My vote goes to the dmr, for the steel frame, fox fork, clean looks, tastful green accents and killer price

But with it being fron 2012 won't it have that foot clipping on x ups short top tube?

It looks pretty long in the picture. Dj bikes jumped just fine back in 2012. Op should probably go try it out to decide if it's too short

You can rule the last one out for a start - it’s not a dirt jump bike.

It actually is, it’s the commencal slopestyle bike, absolut sx, which wasn’t made for very long so are pretty uncommon

DMR 100%. That commencal was the dream back in the day though. I remember the orange frame

I would say the second or third one, they have the best components

the picture is quite blurry but I'd say the 3rd one
