Hello everyone, i am new to this style of riding, but not new to riding. I used to spend a substantial amount of time on a bike until football took over my life, but now college is beginning and football is done with, time to get back on the bike! Currently, im rocking the walmart special (its a roadmaster something) its a FS bike that isnt bad for 80 bucks i paid for it. I am 6' 2'' and currently 250 lbs. (which will be dropping soon, hopefully getting back on the bike will be helpful)
So, heres my question, i am really liking the gary fisher bikes, and i saw the mako and was wondering how that bike is as far as MTBs go, it will be used for light to medium trails, campus riding and a fair amount of street riding. i would like a FS bike. and id also like to keep it 350 or under. Also, are reebok mtbs any good? i saw a pretty solid looking one at dicks today for around 350 that had some nice components and disk brakes, but cant seem to find any information on them.
any help is helpful, thanks.....go easy on me, im new. lol
