Does anyone know a bike similar to the Schwinn Highplains?

Question

i have an old red and gold/yellow Schwinn Highplains. Its starting 2 break down and i want to get a new bike. I want a bike that has an aluminum frame, Rapid Fire thumb shifter system, 21 speed, and goes really fast. If anyone has any suggestions, please answer me.

Answer 1

I think Giant could offer something in the same price range.  I don't usually ride mountain but I had a Boulder SE a few years ago that was pretty nice for the price.
