http://dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2964635 if this is the “bike” you intend on purchasing then I would strongly recommend that you not take it off of paved surfaces EVER. It is made very cheaply and as such does not rate as a full suspension bike. Any full suspension bike for under $900 is not worth the metal it is made of! Having invested over $50,000 in full suspension bikes and one of my first “good” bikes being from Dick’s in the $800 range even that bike was less than desirable as compared to what I have now.
You get this bike and take it off road and you too will learn what i did the hard way. When you buy cheap you get just that. If you dont have more $ to spend or just cant put anymore together then you wont be far behind me with the knowledge of what is good and what isnt. This so called bike will not last you many rides in the woods and the wheels will give out on you very quickly if you plan on jumping much of anything over 4″…! Buy it if you must but remember this: Dick’s is NOT a bicycle shop, they know NOTHING at all about the bikes they sell and although slightly better than Target, Wal Mart and K mart in quality, they are still similar in the fact that they cannot service your bike when it fails you and this one most certainly will fail you!
Compare the fact that the shifters and other components are not even listed on this “bike” then compare to this one: http://www.performancebike.com/bikes/Product_10052_10551_1027088_-1_51000_20000_51506 notice how ALL the components are named and listed?
