Firstly, I found this bike, is it any good?
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_50 2705_langId_-1_CarSelectorCatalogId__CarSelectorGroupId__varien t__categoryId_164451_crumb_33980-33957-90909_parentcategoryrn_164451
But anyway, can someone find me a decent bike with disc brakes, mens bike and comfortable saddle?
+Rep to EVERYONE that helps. :)

for dirt jumps no!
with dirt jumps you dont need a dual suspension. and it will make it more weighty so harder to ride.
the one id reccomend is called a raleigh ST24
It has 24" wheels so not a 20" like a bmx and not 26" like full jump bikes.
Its a good in between bike. We have sold loads of these at the shop i work at as they are popular.
Heres a link to it (http://www.shopwiki.co.uk/detail/d=Raleigh_ST24_Boys_2008_BMX_Bike/jumpToFirst=t/)
If you tell me where your from i can tell you a shop that will be near you that should have one in stock.

Thanks mate, but it's a boys bike, I need a mens bike, as that one is too small. ;)

Thanks, it does look quite nice, but I don't like V-brakes, plus it's steel, meaning its pretty damn heavy. :P
+Rep anyway.
