Hey guys.
I'm looking at getting a new dirtjump frame. I was seriously considering the Yeti DJ...My question is what size should I get? I am about 6'1"... I'm looking at the geometry specs and the larger frame looks absolutely huuge! Anyone here have one and would care to help me out? I know the size charts show that I clearly need the bigger size, but I've purchased frames that are way big in the past based on that.

i will tell you this. the frame rides very weird but accels at 4x. i rode the proto frame for a year and tried to give tem some insight into geo, originally it was supposed to be a street/dj frame. they took all these geos from all aspects of riding and threw them into one frame. personally i never liked the ride and was much happier on the sinister that replaced it. cant wait to get my paws on my new nemy project (marz 4x 65 mm arrived today, deathmobile comes tomorrow)
i would get the large
i haev the small and i am 5-11. lenght is ok but i have toe buzz when xing.
i am working on horizontal drops for ss use. its is a super strong frame and i would but it again for sure.

I'll warn you, the small one is really small. I'm 5-10 or so and I love my short one, but it really is a little frame. Love the new frame graphics on that link.

Cool.
Ya, I was gonna use it more for 4x/dirtjumping than strictly DJ/street. I'm more of a racer. :twitch:

don't have a nice pic but heres mine built up. The thing shreds djs and 4x type riding, but mine sees a lot of street and trails too. I love it for everything.
