that jamis parker is compact nuevo. (i made that up)
i think compact nuevo is the future of general use mountain bike geometry. i like it alot. it's much better than the "toilet with newspaper" riding postition of the old long travel freeride bikes. but it is not a classic genesis/cross country fit either. compact nuevo requires more upper body strength and overall energy to do the same things. especially climbing.
if you want to try the new hotness id go for that complete parker. awesome deal.
if you want somethign more like you warrior but with squish, then get the flite.
