Want a mountain bike… 17"-19" Frame, front suspension is a must… just something to beat around on the local trails, I’m no professional. ---

Go for 29" wheels if you can find one used. If you haven’t done so already, I’d go to a local store like Plaines or Elevate and try the different sizes to see which one fits best. I’m 5’11", 140lbs and ride a large 29’er. Hit me up when you get one, we can go tear up the trailz, bro. Tear them up like no tomorrow. ---

You should be able to get a good bike at Plaine’s for less than $400. I have a Trek I bought there a few years ago with a front suspension and I paid $350. Damn good bike and comfortable for me to ride 20 miles at a time. ---

29er is the way to go. I’m 6’ and ride a 16" (I feel more comfortable on a smaller frame)… You really have to ride a few different sizes to figure out what’s comfortable. Freemans bridge sports should be ordering in a few 29ers in the next week or so. We sold our last one saturday. ---

I ride a 26er and love it. Haven’t thrown my leg over a 29er though. I prefer riding tight twisting trails and I’ve read that a 29er can feel a bit clumsy in those situations. dc2nick where were you riding? I know you work up in toga have you ever ridden the SMBA trails up there? ---

Colonie town park is pretty sweet lots of quick up and downs and a few rocks here and there. Only downfall is it takes forever to dry out after rain. There’s also Luther forest in Malta which is smooth rolling fast single track. ---
