  1. Hey, I am from Ontario and am kind of new to biking. I have always had a bike, just a Supercyle Hooligan but I am looking for something better. I have narrowed it down to do bikes. The Norco Katmandu and the K2 Zed 2.0. They both cost about 445 dollars. I am very stumped and need your help. Here are the links to the bike. Vote for which one you think I should get. Here are the two links:

    K2 Zed 2.0: sportchek.cado...&styleId=43681

    Norco Katmandu: skiisandbiikes.comNorco katmandu.htm

    Not to mention, this is a nice site![img]ridemonkey.comredface.gif[/img]

  2. bump

    PLEASE HELP

  3. At the $400-$500 price point, I would not pick either bike. Instead, I would buy used, or buy from somewhere like www.bikesdirect.com.

    To me, these two choices are much better bikes for the same money:

    bikesdirect.commotobecane 700HT.htm

    +1...but it all depends on where you'll be riding. Both bikes suck on asphalt, they're not great climbers, the Norco will make you work harder with those fat tires

    Just a long way of saying that the bike should suit the ride...sometimes you can find a good used one, but take care to check it over very carefully

  5. I'm not going to be doing a lot of trails. Just easy ones on dirt and stuff. I will mostly be hitting little jumps and what not.

  6. keep posting and voting

    then it really doesn't matter...I'd pick the best fitting bike, compare the build quality...go with the one that suits best

    how is anyone here to know?

  8. Because this is a cycling forum and we help each other out.🙄
