Ok so, ive been riding for years but js got into jumps and stunts. Im wondering what bike to get. And my two options are the canyon spectral 5 (full suspension mtb) and the stchd 360 (dirt jumper). Which should I buy? My current bike isnt horrible or anything but its just too big and heavy for the type of stuff I want to do. Ill usually just be doing jumps and some trail/street riding. Spectral 5 is First link and stchd 360 is second https://www.canyon.com/en-us/mountain-bikes/trail-bikes/spectral/al/spectral-5/3632.html?dwvar_3632_pv_rahmenfarbe=M114_P06 https://www.canyon.com/en-us/mountain-bikes/dirt-jump-bikes/stitched/360/stchd-360/3208.html?dwvar_3208_pv_rahmenfarbe=BK&utm_size=&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADpzu2AP8FLOuv_o7yRchRkhLl96y&gclid=EAIaIQobChMInKT55rjYiQMVyyCtBh0RZCq8EAAYASAAEgLg8_D_BwE&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=CUS+MTB+-+Search+Brand&utm_id=15237605221&utm_adgroup=CUS+MTB+-+Search+Brand+-+Dirt+Jumper&utm_adgroupid=162292220869&utm_keyword=canyon+dirt+jumper&utm_matchtype=e&utm_device=m

Dirt jumpers don’t make good trail bikes.
You can ride jumps with a trail bike, but you can’t ride trails with a dirt jumper
Also both bikes aren’t the greatest spec, i would look on the used market for something in your budget
Id go for the spectral. You can jump and ride trail on the Spectral, but cant really ride trails on a Dirt jumper
So wildly different, I would need to know what kind of trails you have access to to make a recommendation. Do you have other bikes too?
