Buying a Mountain Bike
The 2016 Outside magazine article linked above, says
"At the bare minimum, we recommend looking at hardtails for no less than $1,500 and full suspension at $2,000 to $2,500."
The Icebike article says that you can get "a really good bike" for $700 to $800.
It just goes to show that everyone has their perspective.
My bike is an $800 bike (new) that I got on sale for $600.
Buying a used bike changes all this, but brings on its own set of issues.
Have any comments? Questions?
