Hey everyone, been lurking a couple days and decided to join. Seems to be a lot of information here. I've been mtn biking off and on about 6 months now and love it! I've got a Trek 4500 all stock. Any mods/upgrades I should look into?
Cheers!

Hi montlake_mtbkr, welcome to the forums.
I'm pretty much a road guy so all I can offer regarding mods/upgrades is to check out the mtb threads here; this forum is by far the best on the net for bike info and discussion. :)

Welcome! It looks like you have a perfectly adequate bike, just replace stuff as it breaks.

Yup - that's a good plan Rotifer, because you will be breaking stuff and wearing stuff out sooner than you think! Please don't ask me how I know. :D
