I'm getting back into XC biking and am thinking of getting an entry level bike and was hoping to get some opinions.

I'm 5'7", 28.25" inseam, 140lbs and want to do some easy XC riding. I've been researching a lot of entry level bikes and the most fitting one, it seems, is the Jamis Durango 1. Decent price, upgradeable, and most importantly, the geometry seems to fit my body size nicely (low standover, longer top tube).

Can anyone tell me if I have the right idea or should I find a different bike in this price range.
