Throw the stick!!!!
If I only had $2,000 to buy a bike I would look at some used 2006 bikes. I would much rather get a $3,500 bike with a few rides on it than a new $2,000 bike. That's just me though.

I usually agree with this, but having a warranty is nice too.

I think that I would go for a Stumpjumper FSR Comp or Enduro for a dual
A hardtail? hmmmmm.......I would get a nice steel hardtail frame and do a build. I think I could do a nice build for $2,000
