Re: New bike.
Except for the weight restriction, I'd go for a late '90s XR 250. But I'm biased, as you know, and completely ignorant about mtn bikes, as some have opined. Posted by Big Bad Ben a 36 year old on 02/11/05

Re: New bike.
You could get a Turner Burner at Supergo for $850, a 100mm Fox Vanilla RL fork for $350 (CambriaBike.com) and that leaves you with $1100 for a build kit like the XT M750 kit at BeyondBikes.com. I think that's what I would do for $2200 (tax not included) but the Cake 2dlx seems very nice too. Posted by Duggle a ancient year old on 02/11/05
