Whos got a good hardtail mountain bike. I live in denver and am replacing an old bike. I ride mosly crosscountry/singletrack type stuff. Not hardcore downhill stuff. Mostly cruising on trails and some technical stuff.

good models and brands for some good riding please

Giant Iguana or Rainier are super good for XC. Be careful with drops to flat though; they aren't made for it.

^ word GF is definatly a great mid-range full suspension. I reccomend the cake 4 dlux. But for a higher end, go rocky mountian, just cant beat them.

I say since your just into like XC and singletrack, go with a Specialized Hardrock, cause they decent quality bikes, for a cheap price.
