Careful buying from pinkbike. Those guys like to huck of 50-100 footers, from what I hear. Much more badass than any BF member, but the bikes take a beating.

My only bike is a 96 Rockhopper that I bought used from a local bike shop. I paid $120 for it and so far the only real repair it's needed so far was a new rear wheel after the freehub died, I bet you can find a similar deal in your city.
Also, craigslist is ok if you can do your homework and lurk by the hour. At the moment I'm looking for a cheap bike for my cousin (staying the summer) since I feel guilty hitting the trails without him and craigslist is definitely the place

^Agreed. You have to do at LEAST the absolute most basic research about mountain biking before you can get advice on what bike to get. What you did is the equivalent of going on an automobile forum asking about a good off-roader, & then posting links to a bunch of 2wd Honda CRV's & Geo Trackers asking for opinions. Just because it's technically an SUV doesn't make it good for off-roading, & just because it's technically a mountain bike doesn't make it good for all-mountain.

^I have heard those Target bikes are decent for what they are (x-mart), but you could get a bike from a reputable name with an equal set of components for the same price. So why risk it with Target?
