just spray paint your rims b-4 you lace them, that way you don't have to slave over the internet to find orange s types. plus rims without stickers look better imp

aight good that would be dope to ride with another dude that has a jackal, i WAS the only person in montreal with one and im the only one in ny. I mean the frame is the most amazing piece of work ive ever seen, the welds and the tubing is just beautiful. What color you getting? get a cool color like a different color not white or black or blue haha nah im joking. But the sand one looks sick in person.

from my experience no the the dj3s are horrible, why would you consider that if you are willing to dish out the cash for a 55ata or a pike or even a fox. But of you want to get something a little cheaper go for the manitou gold labels or argyles 318 or even an rst space air (which are amazing and cheap), but your build is perfect so far

either one of your rim choices are nice and light, check out atom lab pimp lites aswell and i would get a 55 ata because of the bling factor, the weight, and the fact that its stronger

that sounds good except your tire choice is bad, either get kenda small block eights if you go with kenda or intense micro nobies or maxxis holy rollers, the hookworms are boats i had them on my old bike. The rest sounds good. i would go SS because if you got gears you would need a guide too. Plus if your find a good ratio its amazing. My build in the picture that i have is 35 pounds with parts that are way lighter than you listed and i don't have a guide. Trust me go SS or you will have a 36lbs-37lbs HT, not too fun because you will want to throw down and learn some good street tricks in the future

hfx9 carbon brakes (heavy), kmc light chain, don't buy a fork thats lower than 100mm for the jackal the geo is off. I would get a fork that has adjustable travel and air since you are going to use it for everything like i do. Like a fox or a 55 ata

My frame size is a large, i'm 6' now i was 5'11 when i bought it. But i heard that if your 5'10" and up you should get a large because the small is cramped.

For flat out DH riding (Gnarly,rooty,rocky terrain) I would snag the v10. It's a tough choice though, they are all amazing.

The money will help you to do what you enjoy, but a job at a shop can be rough.
