well i do enjoy dirt jumps, and i basicly ride mountain trails when i get the chance but i think ill ride pretty much street and the occasional dirt jump when i ride the bmx. the GT prefomer is the exact price i was lookin at it does look very decent for the price. i know nothin about hoffmans i think i should go down to the local bike shop today and say im looking at purchasing a hoffman and ask to take it for a spin. but im open to any bike/brand you throw at me
