the forks are shit. the canadian tire and walmart bikes will be prone to cracking frames and cranks most likely. buy something legitimate.

you can get a decent FSP or front suspension bike for around that price used.

thanks dogs, I step up my budget a little bit and ended up getting a scott aspect 730 today.

Any of u guys do trail riding that can give me your opinion on this bike.

If you're riding trails you probably want a hardtail not full suspension.

Look at used bikes on kijiji and pinkbike, you should be able to find something.

Thats alright. I've gotten pretty out of shape with the new job and move over the past couple months, I've felt like I was going to puke after my first few rides this year.

Trucks gone too now, I've got to order a bike rack for the z
