IF you can get the Raleigh at a realistic price, its a good one. Rusty chain, neglected = $100 or less.

Gary Fisher is probably the best.

Personally, I would avoid anything with a suspension fork.

If I am anywhere near Boise, I am in my car picking up this bike NOW! Its not a racing bike, but its a sweet touring bike with G1 Cyclone GT RD, etc.
