Mountain Bikes

[drivesideways46]

What should I look for? I would like a decent bike to ride around the neighborhood and do some easy trails. I don't want nor need the top of the line type. Just something respectable.

I asked the same question several months ago and ended up buying a Giant Rincon from Element Sports in Winchester.

So far, I like it...but after getting some seat time on it, I can only imagine how much better a more performance oriented bike would be. I think the only real modification I want to make to the bike in the next month or so is more street-friendly tires.

Now my only problem is that I can't find enough time to ride because of my new job. I'm usually only able to go out of the neighborhood and ride once or twice a week :?
