Hey guys I'm new here and need some advice. I'm not a dye hard bike rider and am just getting started. I am 6 foot 6 inches and pushing 300 lbs. I am fairly active and not super fat just big. I want to get a bike for moderate use. I'd probably ride a couple days a week and more so in the summer. I need something for road use mainly but could also handle some easy to moderate trails. I like Moutain bikes because of the heavier duty tires. Here's the catch though..... I don't want to spend alot of money. I know you get what you pay for but I'm on a tight budget right now. I've looked at the Gary Fisher bikes that run about $420 in the XXL frame.
What would everyone suggest? Does anyone have anything used? What should I expect to pay? What inch bike should I go with? I'm new so please be kind to my ignorance... THANKS
