i'd like something inexpensive but good. i'd like full suspension if u got it. lemme know what ya got.

I have a GT Avalanche 3.0 with a U-bolt lock and a bike pump to go along with it. I'll deliver it to you for $150. Let me know if you want pictures.

5/3/2007 8:14:57 PM

i have no problem picking it up but i have a much lower budget

5/3/2007 8:32:25 PM

what you are looking for does not exist, i'd give up if i were you on the whole full suspension idea.
first of all, its unnecessary for riding around campus, and the components you get on a full suspension bike are shit in comparison to what you'd get if you had a front suspension or rigid bike, given you spend the same amount of money.

you'll only find a cheap good full suspension bike if the person selling it is a complete retard, likes you enough to give it to you that cheap, or has way too much money to care about loosing it

5/3/2007 10:13:53 PM

Don't you wish you would have saved your money for something useful, like a bike, instead of something you don't need, like a gun.

5/3/2007 10:17:22 PM

i can sell any gun i have for more than i have in it. not a bad investment huh? also i have a job so it's not like i'm scraping together to buy anything, i only buy what i can afford and if it's priced well.

[Edited on May 3, 2007 at 10:25 PM. Reason : ^^ also i found a mongoose full suspension for $75 i'll prolly be gettin that soon]

5/3/2007 10:24:14 PM

if you want it to last at least a good lil while, then i wouldnt get a mongoose, cuase the one your prolly thinkin bout gettin more then likely came from walmart and those suck! break way too easy and fall apart way to quick

5/3/2007 10:28:41 PM

What are you going to be using it for. Full suspension probably isn't your best bet.

5/3/2007 10:41:23 PM

take it out a couple times a week on some trails, something to try to get my fatass in shape. nothing to hardcore what would ya'll recomend and how much will it cost me?

5/3/2007 10:45:37 PM

you could get a decent one at Dick's (probably diamondback), but it'll be around $200-$300, maybe more. If you are a bigger dude, you'd be better off investing a little more in a bike with higher quality parts.

look for hard-tail models from trek, specialized, GT, and on the lower end Diamondback.

5/3/2007 10:51:32 PM

6" bout 215 lbs. yeah i know, a lil on the fat side.

[Edited on May 3, 2007 at 11:06 PM. Reason : what should i get?]

5/3/2007 10:53:41 PM

Yea, you wont get shit for less than $150. A decent hardtail will run you atleast 200 and thats a base model. Check ebay, you can get some pretty sweet bikes cheap. I got a Specialized that has all high end components that someone built for like $300 shipped.

5/3/2007 11:36:43 PM

the GT I offered has an oversized lower tube and should hold up fairly well to a larger framed person. I forgot to check the frame dimensions on it, but I think it's a 54-56. I switched to a road bike since every mile I logged on that bike was on paved surfaces anyway.

If you can pick it up, I'll drop the price to $125.

5/4/2007 12:06:29 AM

hmm.... idk, u got pics?

5/4/2007 12:11:21 AM

^^ Your GT should be sized using a "S, M, L, XL" scale. Look on tube that the seatpost goes in (between the top tube and the bottom bracket) and you'll probably see a sticker telling you what size it is.

5/4/2007 12:20:18 AM

5/4/2007 12:21:00 AM

The frame size is L.

5/4/2007 12:25:07 AM

Not a bad deal there ^

5/4/2007 12:30:14 AM

that's a good deal, what kind of fork is that?

5/4/2007 12:39:06 AM

suntour xc 60 I believe

5/4/2007 1:15:07 AM

thats a steal right there for ya man, that bike is perfect for ya

5/4/2007 9:48:10 AM

dont buy the $75 mongoose, those arent really built to take on trails and you are basically pissing the money away, they are kids toys

5/4/2007 12:53:10 PM

get the GT

5/4/2007 12:54:11 PM

Theres a reason why they are cheap.

5/4/2007 1:30:54 PM

The $50 you save by buying the Mongoose will probably be gone the first few times you take it on a trail and end up with bent rims, broken handlebars, etc. He has a very good price on that GT. I'm tempted to pick it up for my girlfriend and other guests to use when they come to my house.

5/4/2007 1:59:34 PM

Ditto, it is a great bike and dirt cheap!

5/4/2007 2:02:58 PM

I think I'm going to put this bike on craigslist and see what I can get for it. It's a good bike, but I prefer road riding so much more that I doubt I'll ever get back on it.

5/4/2007 5:52:06 PM

man, trail is the best.....
