    Im new to the site and look forward to hearing from everyone.

    I used to be really into mountain biking 3 years ago. In Jan. 2005 I was in a motorcycle accident and fractured my hip so I ended up selling my bikes and all my gear.

    I was recently bitten by the "bike bug" again and want a new bike. Ive had FS bikes before and am now thinking of a hardtail.

    Any suggestions on a hardtail for under $1300 ???

    Cheers

    If you get a hardtail with 29er tubeless tires, it will be easier on your back, adds a little "squish". Check out a Gary Fisher maybe?
