Looks like I'll need to scrounge up some cash over the winter to buy the family some mountain bikes. We've got GREAT rail-trails near our house, and my 3.5 year old son is getting excited about having his own bicycle, especially since his friend has a bike with training wheels. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thinking.gif
I like to buy quality stuff at a great price... not the cheapest price, but the best bang for the buck, so to speak. The best value. And something that will serve me well for years to come. I have a cherished road bike with a terrific CroMoly frame that I bought in 1989, and it's still going strong today... still feels like a piece of precision machinery. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I'll need mountain bikes for myself, my wife, and my son! What features should I look for, which brands and/or models would you recommend, etc.? You know, all the usual questions... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif
I know some things right away. I don't want anything with a frame that could rust, and I want something fairly lightweight...
