Ride 2015
Mountain biking can be expensive. Be honest with yourself about your ability and goals before you start shopping. Used bikes can be an attractive option but can be a catch-22 for someone who is new to the sport. Often what you spend on a used bike, plus the cost to refurbish it to trail-worthy status, is no less expensive than a new bike. A good bike shop will also help ensure the bike fits you properly, which is half the battle.
