Which Bike would be good for a beginner??



I'm looking to do about a 50/50 split of road and trail riding. My friend said to get a hardtail and he does about the same amount of riding. My local bike shop (CycleCraft in Morris county NJ) had a Scott Voltage YZ3 and a Trek 4300. Of the two, which has the better features? I was also looking at some Giant bikes and Fisher bikes online. Are the two that my shop has in stock worth looking at or should I also pursue finding a place with some Giant/Fisher bikes??

anyone with training wheels
Your size and weight affect the answer quite a bit. A bike like the Trek 7000 or 7300 are very good fits for up to medium sized adults and teenagers. If you intend to go longer distances (50+ miles) or serious climbing, you may find it cheaper to own two bikes.

Beginner? Try one with training wheels! Thats how we all learned!
Giant Rainier, Trek Fuel,Kona Stuff, Trek 4300 ( add something like a Marzocchi suspension from Blue Sky Cycling website ----www.blueskycycling.com) are cool bikes. Get a bike with SRAM 9.0 w/ matching shifters, Hayes disc brakes, Race Face crankset, Avid Juicy 9 brake levers, and Mavic disc-compatible rims----
