So my current general use MTB is an 07 Specialized Hardrock sped'd out as in my sig, and Its a sturdy bike and I can do a lot with it, but it really isnt my style. While it is definitely a XC bike, it kind of has free ride style styling, and the 100 mm travel fork doesnt compare at all to any of the 80mms I have tried(really stiff, doesn't ever even make it near the max travel) . Also it is heavy as a brick, with Acera derailleurs. I am thinking about selling this bike, and using the money to get an Nicer steel fully rigid MTB from the early-mid 90s and fixing that to be my trail rig. I feel like this would be a lighter bike, could be easily outfitted with used Deore components, and is very appealing to me. Would the price from my newer MTB offset the price of a semi vintage MTB?
