Hey all, figured while I'm looking for a new bike I might as well see what the wisdom of the TGR crowd is on the matter. I'm based in Colorado and new to MTB (have ridden road for awhile) but it seems like a great summer alternative to skiing so I'm looking to get into it. Been looking in the aftermarket for awhile but would love your insight into good options.
Not having ridden much before, this feels like guesswork because I don't know my own riding style or up vs down preference. Thinking for a first bike I'd want something pretty well rounded, "quiver of one" so to speak (although there are some obvious downsides here).
Specifically I've been looking at the Evil Following and new Santa Cruz Tallboy but would welcome any specific opinions about bikes I should check out or general thoughts on how I should think about going about finding the right bike.
Should also mention I'm pretty much limited to the aftermarket due to price....this shit is expensive (isn't everything). Been looking on CL and Pinkbike but if ya'll have any better suggestions on places to look then let me know.
Thanks in advance!
