PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP TELLING HIM CABLE DISC BRAKES ARE IMPROVEMENT OVER V’S… THEY AREN’T!!! > [@redrum](#): > > all the serious riders i know would be buying frames and parts online and wrenching on their own stuff. ^^ werd but it will cost wayyy more… > [@redrum](#): > > if you looked at used bikes, you could get a much higher caliber bike for that amount of money if you want to put that sort of effort in. ive sold a couple mountain bikes that would have retailed around $2k+ new for $600-800 a few years after purchase, in excellent shape. or this can come around and bite you in the ass. not everyone was as gentle on thier bikes as you were mr.nelson… so like i said the first time the best bang for your buck will be a trek. sorry for the incompitance of the salesmen at berts. if you want to talk to someone who knows thier mtb shit you can come back into the one in op and talk to brian if hes there. i can help you if you want to get into bmx. i just convinced bert to let me pick up a bunch of sweet lines including s&m, fit, metal, fbm, terrible one, primo, odyessy, and premium products… --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/help-me-find-a-mountain-bike/16964)._
