I'm planning to buy a mountain bike tomorrow. Which brand is recommended?

i am looking at buying a new mountain bike but not sure what to get.
i am thinking of getting a viper fat boy it is going at £259 reduced from £499

,

my bike is rubbish and i have a biking holiday coming up. it would be reall useful if you could help me with this!!. a ladies bike, with pretty good suspension and thick tyres!

,

What time of year are they less expensive?

mid life time. i have now reached that time in life where i want to do things i could not afford to do before. so i have picked mountain biking. So which bike? the four to choose from bearing in mine that i would like to do the Mountain Mayhem in 2008. Trex, specialized, Orange or Marin £1500-2000 to play with and one year to get fit, aslo looking to upgrade the bike as i go.

The bike trails I ride on are hilly in spots. Is it the new Stingray easy to peddle? Easy on the knees? I like coaster brakes better than hand brakes so I am hoping the Stingray will be a bike I can enjoy. I am 5' 2" around 100 pounds.

it's broken. some good websites would help as well.

What is the average frame size for a woman. I need a bike for my girlfriend who is 5'3. Is a 19" frame to big?

, ,

Can anyone give me any advice on a mountain bike for a 10 year old. I dont know anything about full suspension or hardtail! All i know is i want something that is pretty light so that he doesnt struggle with lifting it. Any information about what i need and how much i can expect to pay would be great. Cheers.

Im looking for a nice hardtail mountain bike but im not sure what to get. I want to spend between 5 and 0. Im thinking possibly the KHS Alite 150. If anyone has opinions for that bike it would help too.

Thanks for the help.

I need a 1990-91 GT bike catalog because i am looking for a GT mountain bike called a Karakoram. It was a purple haze color. If any of you have one please tell me about it. If not please send me a link to the catalog thanks.

Gary fisher supercaliber 29 from 2007, its going to cost 1500 dollars + 60 for shipping. how much am I going to end up paying in duties?

there are only a few races left, only one ranked in my area. i dont expect finals, or even 2 or more races, but i do want to go on the few organized rides still left in my area. i could wait until december to get a license for next year, in which i could actually be serious about racing, but i wouldnt get to go on the few rides left

it is 30 US$ per license

It broke and I can not find any for sale with that name. Is that a generic name. I found 6 different altus derailleurs but none with the A20 on it.
What can I do besides consult with a bike shop. I was hoping to order the part online and save a trip the bike shop.

I have been looking at this bike and wanted to know if it was any good I don't really do jumps or anything like that but I do a lot of Cross-Country and stuff plus I do a paper round every morning so it needs to last a while I suppose.

I will be using the bike for general cycling and some off-roading, but nothing overly extreme, hence why I am only looking at entry level bikes.

Which of the following would be the best choice, in terms of my needs and the quality of the components used and the weight of the bike - I am also after the lightest model, so if any biking experts know which of the below brands makes the lightest frames, please advise! Thanks.

Bianchi DOSS 6400 Al DEORE 07

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?

Thanks

I bought a green mongoose booster bike two years ago and somebody stole it last month where could i get a bike just like that ?

i want to get a bike that i could use mountain biking. but i also want to be able to go to the park and learn tricks and stuff. i don't know much about bikes, but i've always wanted to get into it. I'm 5'8" and i don't know if there's some sort of size specification. any help would be great. i want to spend less than 0. thanks.

I am 6ft so what sort of mountain bike frame height do I need?

,

Also, is there some kind of mail order place that puts out a catalog or has a really good web site for aftermarket parts?

,

a lot of people make offers for my schwinn but i'm not sure if their offers are good enough.

How feasible is it to go from mountain (fat tire) to hybrid (thin low drag tire) functions? Can I just change the wheels or is it more involved?
