help choose bike please
Hi, I'm thinking about buying new bike, but I don't know how should it look like. I want something that can take a lot of beating, suitable for downhill, but I don't want to sacrifice mobility uphill. It can't be heavy, I also heard full suspension bike is not best choice to go uphill. I think nice hardtail should do the trick. What do you think? Also, which one is better hydraulic or mechanic brake?, What type of shifter would be good for bike like this?
This is just to get a general idea, but I am willing to spend around 2000$.
Thanks for help.
