GT avalanche, Rocky mountain flare, vapor
Hey there mountain bikers!
I am getting my first (real) bike soon and have a tough decision.
Here are the options:
1. 2008 GT Avalanche 3.0 USED (with a Marzocchi DJ1-dual air) $400
2. 2010 Rocky Mountain flare NEW (all stock) $500
3. 2010 Rocky Mountain Vapor NEW (all stock) $700, possibly 650
My question is, out of these 3 choices, which one is best worth the money?
I am on a tight budget (around $600), and if the difference isn't great, then i could just save up money or use it for other necessities in life.
I plan to ride this bike on regular trails, no serious mountains, i plan to have this as a more of a cross country bike than anything (off road trails, etc.).
Can i get suggestions from you guys?
Cheers!
