Question

I want to start mountain biking, I have a budget of about 300 dollars, I am 5 foot 4, what bike should I get?

Answer 1

Get fitted at you local bike shop.  Know what size will feel best, heck pick out a brand you like.  Everyday go to E-bay and bid up to $200 until you win the bike you like.  You will need at least $100 for a tune-up when the bike arrives.

Answer 2

A Trek 820 could do the trick.

Answer 3

Try Giant Rock in a 17"

Answer 4

get a giant rincon or boulder used on ebay for that price. or a fuji mountain
