Best bikes under 3k.
- Thread starter KenW449
- Start date
it's just a lazily put together list of pretty bargainous bikes
some of them are pretty good.
Be helpful if you said what your looking for other than just splashing $3k randomly
but if it's a solid derp/DHable fun all rounder

I have that bike. Love it. Got the 2017 XT drive train, SLX brakes blah blah blah for $1850. Solid deal. Sometimes I almost feel like I’m having as much fun as my buddies on their $6000 carbon super bikes.
You probably are...
I have the Esommet VR. E bike version with Lyrik, Superdlx, Guide RE, DT/XT/SLX and love it.
Have ridden the normal one too. Great bikes (and not just for the money either)
I'd go as far as to say the Lyrik equipped carbon Sommets rival a top end Nukeproof Mega.. .So basically an entire stage faster than any top end $6k derp bike if that's your thing
Alu Capra
I love mine and it shreds absolutely everything every time every day

All the Guerrilla Gravity bikes can be had for under $3k. I can only comment on the Shred Dogg, but I have nothing but good things to say about it. I feel like a kid again every time I go for a ride. Customer service was top notch also. When my boys outgrow their current bikes I would like to build up some GG's for them, that's how much I like the bike and the company behind it.
Guerrilla Gromity, i like it. #24aintdead
F-you so hard for beating me to this.
Commencal clash, yt capra, transition patrol, or process 167?
One of the red ones.

I think the availability of fantastic used bikes is probably what's killing the industry and forcing the adaptation of ridiculous "standards". I mean you can get last years' wunderbike for less than 3k, and it probably rides a lot better than any of those on the list, even if they have nx eagle and 148mm boost. That didn't use to be the case, back when every five years represented a huge leap forward, and not virtually the same bike but with wider axles.
