I'm currently trying to break into mountain biking and my 1996 Rockhopper I got in a trade 2 years ago took a crap on me after a small drop off.
I am trying to research all mountain bikes that would be good for a beginner wishing to pursue more aggressive track as skills improve. I'd like to stay under 2 grand for my first "purchased" bike as I would hate to trash it in my "infancy stage" of riding...any input would be awesome!
Also I am about 5'3 and weight a buck and some change.
Cheers!
