don't get a walmart bike if possible.... even though i do not live in america, and have never shopped at wal mart, i have heard many reports about wal mart bikes being 'dodgy' . if possible get a 2nd hand bike. for ~$100 US, you should be able to get a fairly decent cross country mountain bike, that is about 3 or 4 years old. dont get anything fancy looking like that pic mole1135 just posted, you are better off with a plain front suspension mountain bike. you do not need dual suspension.... unless of course you are going to be doing downhill (which i doubt you will be). try and stick with a brand such as gaint, haro, avantai (or even kona like soemone said, but they will be out of budget). |
