beginner mtn bike, what to buy
I bet you guys get a lot of these. I am in nashville and Im looking to
take advantage of these great hills and country side as I previously lived in the city. I want to get a bike that will serve me well. I dont really plan to race or anything, just go out on the weekends and evenings and ride the crap out of my bike. I also dont want a throw away bike so something quality would be good. Is the schwinn rocket series a good bike? A lot of the guys here say schwinn is junk and I should get a rocky mtn. What full suspension bike do you guys recommend for a beginner?

Giant builds most of the bikes people will suggest ... so go with them, they
have the best "value" ... fuji makes some good ones ... if money is no problem, get a Santa Cruz Blur. s http://boardnbike.com "mark v." wrote in message m... I bet you guys get a lot of these.
