    in a word no.
    although you may get very lucky on a ebay auction?
    would dare say you wont get a mtb for that, that wont fall apart after one jump.
    maybe a bmx would be the best route.

    or a answer you will probably already heard, save more money!

    good luck
    Enjoy the simple things in life
  • I was lucky to pick up a Identiti Dr Jekyll frame with naff all wrong with it for 60 squid, LBS has gona over it and said i got a bargain. So sometimes if your quick and really lucky you can get a bargain

    i built my jump bike for around £250 (frame and forks) using bits from my old bike slowly upgrading. had it for 5 years now and its still not finished lol

    recently there was a da bomb frame going for £99 which i was thinking about getting, but when i decided that i wanted it it was gone. so i guess wait till lbs's are shifting last years stock for a bargin...i wish i did
