I feel like I'm starting to ride all over again, although this time I think I have a better idea what I want. :rolleyes:


This is the mountain bike I'm looking at: http://www.fujibikes.com/bike/details/nevada_29_11_d
(The other one I'm looking at is the Giant Talon 0)
Decentish drivetrain components, disc brakes, and because I work for a Fuji dealer, I get a very nice discount on it.

I have no clue about the fork. Or sizing. I imagine a small/15-16"? (Fuji does strange things with sizing, though.)
:confused:

I don't know enough to have an opinion, but it's pretty! :-) I am 5'3 and on a men's 15 inch if that helps any. 29 inch inseam.

The standover on the 15" frame is quite high. Over 78 cm. I'm 5'4 with a 29'5 inseam and no way it would fit me. Unless you have very long legs or you're a high girl, you wouldn't be able to stand over the frame with both legs on the ground.
