Jeff from Bike Jerks snapped this photo of a racer in the Powderhorn 24 jumping his Motorola off a janky ramp. It’s a good thing he’s on an MX-Leader!

Next up is a Merckx Pista that’s the same exact size as my Merckx Pista. Look at that head tube! 62cm of fun.

And for the smaller riders, how about this 55cm Corsa Extra?
