Hello everyone! I'm just getting into biking and want to buy an entry-level rig for trail riding and the occassional jaunt across town. I'm 6'0'' tall and weigh 225 lbs. The bikes I'm currently looking at are the top four on the following link:

Bikes from my local bike shop...

The top three all have Deore components but I'm not sure about the forks... Rock Shox Judy SL U-Turn, Manitou Splice Comp w/ Air Assist 120mm Travel, and Manitou Axel Comp 100mm. Anybody who has riden or is currenlty riding any of these have an opinion (yay or nay)? Originally, I was looking for a hard tail but the FS caught my eye due to the discount!

Is there anything else I'm overlooking?

I plan on heading in this weekend to talk to them in person, but I want to make sure I have covered all my bases.

Thanks in advance everyone!

:cool:
