Need to buy a mountain bike for this summer
I'm working at a summer camp in CO this summer and would like to have a mtb for their trails etc...
I'm looking for something that I could use for two years or so and that's a good entry level bike. I'd like to spend no more than 300$ on the bike...dunno much ab mountain biking, but i want something that'll hold up, I can go fast on rough terrain on, and I'm not opposed to buying used. I'm not looking to do jumps/run over huge rocks...I just want something I can take out and get in hill workouts with. Usually road biking is my thing, but this camp has no paved roads and nothing nearby to ride on...however, they're at 8000 feet and have tons of dirt roads so I figured a mtb would be great
This was one of my ideas..
