Man, full Tourney. $500 won’t even buy a cassette hub any more?

I’d save up a little longer and get something with an air fork. An x caliber or a roscoe, depends which tire size you like. Or other brand equivalent. I’d have tried a Roscoe but they weren’t in stock when I was shopping and I got a Salsa Timberjack from REI, well under $1000 counting the credits.
