Re: Newb Buying a Bike
I heard that the Trek is a nice ride, but check out the Kona Dawg, I think that it will fit for the kind of riding you want to do. It goes for $1399. Here is the link.

Re: Newb Buying a Bike
Thanks, that seems like a good bike, I may think about getting an 05 one used, or close out if I can. You think that bike will be good for the kind of riding I am talking about? Thanks

I do think that the bike would be good for you. An 05 is a awesome ride to. Good luck on with what you get and let me know!
