Where to buy a mountain bike, and what brand? |
I want to get a mountain bike. I don't need anything fancy, just one to ride on the trails where I live. I don't want to spend a lot of money. I'm hoping to stay under 100 bucks. I know that's not gonna get me anything great but that's okay. What brands are good for what I'm looking for and in my price range? And where should I go to look for em? For what you are looking for check Go to a bike force store they have pretty good bmx's, mountain bikes and all the rest. go to your local bike shops and see if they have used bikes. for $100 all you can get is a 10 + year old bike. get brands like specialzied, giant or trek still looking ? |
