Mountain Bike Recomendation?

Question

Ive been mountain biking for about 3 years. I love it! I need a hardtail bike that can be taken off jumps, and survive challenging trails. My current bike is an 05 Giant Boulder, and it breaks after every jump. Any recommendations for a bike would great, under $1000.

Answer 1

Fisher's HKEK aka Hoo Koo E Koo.

Answer 2

I would go back to your Giant dealer and tell them what type of jumping you are doing. Giant has a few HT bikes that will meet your needs the Boulder is not one of them, it is an entry level trail bike and was never meant for jumping.

Answer 3

Gary Fishers are good bikes. Another choice in your budget is a Raleigh M80. That was what I was going to get before I decided to go full suspension. There have been some guided mountain bike tours of the new state park near San Antonio. Government Canyon? I can't remember the name, but it is a way to see the park before it's open to the general public.

Answer 4

yeap i would stick with giant. they are very good, take it to the shop. check ebay for used giant, or rocky mountain for ht bike
