Fairdale Hareraiser DJ 26" is a dedicated chromoly dirt jump frame built to bridge MTB, DJ, and BMX riding—ideal for park lines, pump tracks, and street sessions where quick handling and repeatable durability matter.
Its
100% 4130 chromoly chassis and BMX-influenced tubeset deliver a responsive ride feel while standing up to hard landings and daily use. With
26-inch wheel compatibility and
ultra-short chainstays, the Hareraiser keeps manuals, spins, and tight transitions feeling natural, not forced.
What makes it a smart DJ build platform
- 4130 chromoly construction - Long-term strength with a lively, controlled ride feel for jumping and park riding
- MTB–DJ–BMX crossover geometry - Confident on dirt and ramps while staying playful enough for street-style moves
- Ultra-short chainstays - Faster manuals and easier direction changes for technical park riding and tricks
- Tapered head tube (1-1/8" to 1-1/2") - Improved front-end stiffness and steering precision when pushing into lips and landings
- 3/8" rear axle slots with integrated chain tensioners - Keeps the rear wheel aligned and chain tension consistent under load
- 73mm BSA threaded bottom bracket - Straightforward service and broad crank compatibility for modern DJ builds
Build notes:
Removable Gyro tabs support BMX-style Gyro setups for barspins, a
sealed FSA Orbit headset is included to simplify the build, and the frame is commonly paired with modern DJ forks, including
15mm thru-axle models (fork dependent).
