This is just something I did in photoshop. I think it looks much nicer than the actual Jack 3. Here's a link to what the actual Trek Jack 3 looks like:

I'm sure it does perform at something.
Yeah, that something would be a dirt jumping/ street bike. It has very similar geometry to last years gary fisher biggins line (trek owns gary fisher, basically the same company) which has been a proven bike. I've got friends that ride it, and I've tried them, they're a nice bike and handle well.

Trek's Bruiser hardtails are sweet too, but only in the 14.5" size. The 16.5" feels more like an All mountain bike.

The bruiser series just got a few upgrades, new paintjob, and a new name.

Trek is on crack for pricing the Jack 3 at $1,319.00 usd with the parts spec that it has, dj bikes at that range shouldn't be coming with a dirt jam fork, it should be coming with a Dirt Jumper 2/3, not to mention no name rims, and a no name headset. Should be more around the range of 800-900 usd not the price they are asking for.

It's so the kids whose parents buy them that bike can feel superior to the kids whose parents buy them STP's or Stuff/Cowans.
