Went to the local bike shop finally. Told the guy what my needs were. He recommended and I road a Specialized Rockhopper linked below.
$560 out the door price which includes free tuneups for life. Why is this so much cheaper than the online price? Also, holy shit. I had no idea bikes could be that smooth and shift with such ease. My God it was incredible and this is just a "basic" model? https://www.specialized.com/us/en/me...=240208-128930 |

Keep it clean and get a tuneup on it once a year and it'll last a lifetime I have an entry level Trek that I eventually handed down to my daughter to use to travel around the university campus. The bike is 16 years old, sat out in the rain, snow, dust for 4 years on campus. Clean it up, tune it up and still rides great. |

Is that the type of riding you're looking at doing? If not, I'm not sure it makes sense to carry the weight of a mountain bike around with you. As far as the price difference, the online price of my CrossRip was $1099, the regular price at the place I bought it was $999, and I got another 10% off because I bought it during a winter sale, so I don't think it's all that unusual. |

How the hell do you tune up a bike ? Spray the gears with WD40 and check the tire pressure ?
