Hello everyone, this is a great forum. I could use some input on a new bike purchase. It's time to get rid of my 89 bridgestone mb1. It is a great bike but no suspension. I'm looking at spending $1500 or less. I'm considering 3 bikes so far, Specialized stumpjumper comp, Marin juniper trail, & Giant xtc se2. Any input would be helpful. Thanks.
