I'm looking for a new mountain bike. I'll need to purchase it at the end of next year, so a 2008 model will be fine. I'm looking for a cross country hardtail in the $1200 range. Any good models or brands I should be looking at? THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!!

no problem. you can't hardly beat that paint job too! giant has a nice sense of style when it comes to frame design. i would've gone with the alliance myself but i had a $500 budget at the time so i went with a silver and yellow yukon. it looks pretty sharp to me.

honestly, i am not really a big fan of trek. Partly because about half the stuff on their bikes is made by bontrager, which kinda sucks. You really have a small choice of parts on trek bikes. For a good trek bike, the only good thing is a fuel ex, because their other bikes really aren't that great

The Bontrager parts on my bike seem pretty solid. The crank arms are strong and so are the handle bars. The tires are the same brand and they do really well. Aren't Giant's made in China?
