I am a complete n00b to mtb as I have only ridden Ross bikes in my day.
I really have was not sure where to start so i spoke to some rider
frieneds and they gave me some things to look for and I have narrowed
down to this list. Suggestions and comments are more than welcome!! I
cant wait to get started, I am feeling the itch.
Here are the choices. In order of price lowest > highest.
Gary Fisher Tassajara 2006 $719
Trek 6500 $769
*Ibex Trophy Comp $799 **This item I have been informed is OOS until
the '07's come in in October. **
Jamis Durango 3.0 $825
Gary Fisher Tassajara Disc 2006 $899
Kona Hoss $899
$899 was a lil' higher than I wanted to go so i was wondering if there
is anything comparable for a little bit less.
Things to consider.
- This is my first REAL Mtb I have only ridden Ross in the past.
- I am 6'3" - 245 (Aiming to get back to 225)
- I have no idea what style riding i will get into.
I would appreciate any recommendations!!
