Hi there, just joined today (though i have been reading for a while).

of course, i'm looking for an mtb bike that costs ~$500.

i recently came across the Fuji Discovery 2: http://www.fujibikes.com/2005/bikes.asp?id=34

any thoughts? (and yes, i'm well aware that no full suspension bike below $1000 is "any good", so aside from that, thoughts would be appreciated) the reviews i've read aren't great, so maybe i'vealready answered my own question, but still...
