I'm
6' 1/2" and 155 pounds looking into getting a new
used bike. I've been riding
singletrack in Minnesota for 4 years, and I'd say I'm
intermediate. I'm looking around on craigslist and
http://www.morcmtb.org/classifieds.
Here's what I am looking for
-29er
-hardtail
-most likely not FS
-disc brakes, preferably not mechanical (unless somebody has a good reason as to why I should)
-at least 24 speed drive train
-good front suspension
-high quality components
-20-21.5 inch frame (does that sound about right? from my crotch to the floor is like 35 inches.)
Do you guys have any good bikes in mind? Can you give me tips for buying a used bike? Any other information is also appreciated.
