New guy on STR
Hey, I live somewhere on the northern part of Fullerton Loop and always see riders on the horse trail. Looking to get into mtb and I've been researching a lot on a new bike. Hope to see you out there.

Welcome.
We have several regular rides at the Fully Loop including the Thursday night ride and the Sunday morning ride. Check out the Trailhead forum for upcoming rides.

Got around to checking out/riding a few bikes from Buena Park Bicycle. With the help of Hank I was able to get fitted on a medium frame. Here are the prospects:
08 Giant Rincon $419.99 08 Specalized Hardrock Comp Disc $549.99 (worth the extra 50 for 2008 model?) 06 Specalized Hardrock Comp Disc $499.99 They all fit my criteria for a mid-entry level AM HT that will get most use on singletrack and the occasional road. Fork lockout wasn't a priority. Fit overall on the bikes were great, but I think on either Hardrocks I felt more comfortable due to the shorter stem and top tube. |
