Yeah, I had in mind riding it the wrong way and stuff. If your just going down it I don't see why not. Are you good at dirt jumping? I have a DJ bike but only have jumped very small jumps.

Thanks! I looked at the NS at Winterberg on youtube. I can see why trials isn't allowed!

Thanks, video 17 is the one with lots of gap jumps. I try that as well - getting as close to the edge as possible. I like to watch the Coustellier brothers videos to get ideas on technique. 2 meters sounds good, good luck!

Sorry I mean I found some of the gap jumps in my recent video my limit. Yes my new bike has 55mm bottom bracket rise and my old bike had +20mm. :) Good luck with the higher bottom bracket rise. What rise does your GU have?

Oh right, I haven't tried any of the gap jumps I struggle with yet so I'm not sure if I get a bit more power or not. When I had 170mm cranks I used 22:19 so I think its the same gear ratio. As I’m using different frame this might change my gap jumps as well?

I only notice the difference of how the longer cranks feel. Sheldon has information about crank lengths. http://www.sheldonbrown.com/cranks.html
