Hi there,
I'm a die hard roadie who crawled out of the mud pits of MTBing and am now itching to get muddy again...
I've also decided to let my previous beast rest who is about 4 years old. I'm looking for bike recommendations and hopefully you MTBers can help! :)
I have my eye on the Trek 6500 WSD. I have also been told Specialized Stumpjumper is nice. But as a current Trekkie, my loyalties are to stay with Trek.
Anyone ride this now? I'm looking for a hardtail, something light and am still on the fence about disc brakes. I don't need full suspension. I'm more into XC riding and potentially racing.
As I support one baby, I can't break the bank on this second baby. I'm willing to invest but nothing outrageous...:p
I appreciate your insights!
