Santa Cruz Bicycles Jackal Mountain Bike Frame - 2013
No matter how much love we foster for our full-fledged mountain bikes, we all have a place in our bike hearts for the original BMX bruisers that we grew up riding. For those of us who still want to tap into our riding youth " or for those who never left it behind " the Santa Cruz Jackal Frameset is a serious platform for dirt-jumping, pump-tracking, tail-whipping, and any other way you care to conquer the bicycle playgrounds.
Leveraging its extensive experience manipulating alloys, Santa Cruz happily overbuilt the heck out of the all-aluminum Jackal, because it wanted the frame to take any degree of abuse and last as long as the dirt you're soaring over. Still, the frame comes in under five pounds, keeping it on the lighter end of the spectrum, especially compared to comparable steel frames.
With a bike park and jump track right there in their backyard, the riders and huckers at Santa Cruz have spent nearly a decade refining the Jackal's design and geometry. Exhaustively determined head tube and seat tube angles conspire into a super confident and controllable platform for a huge variety of riding. The rear dropouts are adjustable to allow for extremely precise adjustment of handling characteristics, too. You'll find ISCG-05 tabs alongside the tried-and-true 73mm threaded bottom bracket shell, because, like your love for building jumps, some things from our past are better to embrace than try to replace.
The Santa Cruz Jackal Frame comes in the size Medium only, and only in the color Black. It's designed exclusively for use with 26-inch wheels and can accommodate forks from 100mm to 160mm in travel, depending on the rider's style and preference.
Price: $349.99 (53% Off!)
Regularly: $750.00
