I want a reliable mountain bike, and the walmart ones seems not so
reliable.

Then I tried to find bikes on internet
http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/p...a+bike&parentPage=search&searchId=21365576134

how about this columbia bike? is this brand good? The bike is made
from aluminum so I think it is good. Plus shipping is 170$, is this a
good deal?

how about another bike schiwin mountain ridger 119.99 in target? is
this brand good?

And what is your suggestions that where should I buy a bike.

Thanks a lot

Any bike you buy from a big box store (i.e. Target, Wal-Mart, Dicks,
Sports Authority, etc.) is going to be JUNK. If you ware going to do
any actual mountain biking, you will very very disappointed with the
performance.

For a new mountain bike, the low-end entry level bike (Specialized
Rockhopper is one) will cost around $500. You should buy a bike from a
reputable bicycle shop. They will take the time to put you on the best
bike you can afford and that fits you comfortably.

You are in Columbia, Missouri if my lookup is current. It is a college
town. Most college towns have at least a couple of good bicycle shops.

If the $500 is out of your price range, then your next best place is
used. Even a used good mountain bike is better than a big box bike (or
more commonly called Bicycle Shaped Toys). See if you can find a
Rockhopper, Giant Yukon, Kona Cinder Cone, or even a ~Shudder~ Gary
Fisher on Craigslist.

If the bike says Mongoose, Schwinn (unless it's 10 years old), Huffy,
Next, Jeep, Columbia (they make clothing and tents - not bikes), then RUN!

Thanks a lot.
I just get back from a bike shop and the bikes are pretty expensive
and a bike priced over 300 will have a high possibility to be
stolened. I found a Trek 3000 priced 269 and it is cheapest in that
shop. I am now looking for used bikes or the 269 one.

Thanks again for your advice. : )

I think the first question should be:
What ya need it for???

The link pointing @ dicks is ****, only usefull if you got a death-wish. I
would NEVER drive downhill on a bike like that (and could never drive
uphill...).
