I found a bike with Shimano Acera to be perfectly functional.
I don't think a suspension fork robs your pedal power. They more or less stay at the top of their travel unless you actually hit a bump, or unless you stand up on the pedals while climbing a hill. Try to spring for a bike with a cassette rear wheel unless you're a lighter guy. It's a weak design and the axle will bend. I have found that keeping the bearing cones snugger than normal seems to help. |

try the raleigh mojave 2.0, its just right for your price range and is perfect for riding around all the time, I ride mine to work everyday over mostly road but some pretty bumpy stuff and a jump or two also, never had any problems with it and it is pretty light also.
