Prophet 800 = what specialized?
My buddy has a 2005 Cannondale Prophet 800 and I am wanting to know what Specialized mountain bike that this would compare to? I looked but I'm just not real sure what to tell him. We both have a mutual friend who is wanting to buy a bike but is not so sure of the Cannondale, he would like something comparable, but just not a Cannondale. My friend payed around $2000 for his Cannondale if it will help. So what ever you guys suggest, I am going to give to my friend as a starting point. Thanks
