Also where I can find some good trails. I have a bump on my tire already like a little ball do I need to buy a new tire now it seems to be fine just wobbles a little bit. Thank you in advance

You will need to get a new tire to fix that bump right away. It will soon pop and leave you stranded.

I have had good luck and pricing with Blue Sky, Jenson, Nashbar and Performance are just as good.

See if you can find some other Mountain bike riders and ask them about trails. Another way is to visit a local bike shop and ask them, they might also have flyers.

Raleigh is a solid name in bikes. If it feels comfortable to you, ride it for all its worth.

New to forum so hello. Just picked up this deal https://handlebargains.com/deals/acos and thinking about some DH armor? They carry Troy Lee? Is that good stuff? Thanks.
