I was about to buy that bik last year but didnt because the colors were ultra gay. Glad to see it isn’t gay anymore.

Pirahna is a decent Hardtail. Nothing too crazy, but it’s good mid-range. It should hold up to what you will be putting it through for sure.

I wanted a Fisher HiFi but couldn’t justify the cost and bought a used '05 Cannondale Jekyll this spring for $650. Been out on it about 10+ times already.

Yeah, the HiFi got RAVE reviews for a trailbike, but I just wasn’t willing to spend that much on a new bike. Maybe in a year or 2 if I happen across a used one for a good price I’ll jump on it.

My FREE Trek 5500 OCLV is doing just fine in my basement. A little dusty but still doing well.
