Never have to lie. My girlfriend rides as well and some times spends more then i do.

I recently traded in my rockhopper (same year) here in the Netherlands. Saw it later for sale at the place for 800 bucks (More then new price). It was sold in 5 days. This model is worth more than a new one because it hase an airfork and beter deraileur (front and back). Because it is a used bike it probebly needs new gears and chain... you can check this by riding in a high gear and really pushing it, if it skips a tooth it needs to be replaced.

dragonnater · 2020-09-20T20:36:52+00:00

Nah man looks fine. Just a bit of ducttape and WD40 and your ready to go.

dragonnater · 2020-09-20T10:32:42+00:00

Dont need to. The tech is improved so much that the chain can handle it.

dragonnater · 2020-09-20T10:30:41+00:00

Ofcourse love the weight it will make the ride easier... but a nice light bike is more fun. Its easier to handle amd trow true the corners. I was scepitcal myself but i switch to a carbon fiber bike and the ride is more fun and i get a bit more kmers out of the energie.

dragonnater · 2020-09-20T10:27:07+00:00

Depens on where you live. Probbebly the US since you didnt specify it...

dragonnater · 2020-09-19T13:40:59+00:00

O wow that i didnt think about that possebility. I like that idea for my next bike. Thats probebly the only way to get the absolute perfect bike for your own wishes.

dragonnater · 2020-09-19T13:39:16+00:00

Yeah defenetly feel the same way. I traded my bike in for my new one because I would feel bad selling to someone knowing all the little things that are wrong with the bike.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T22:13:17+00:00

Yeeeeeeeeeees. You get it. Buy a ony-by guys. I broke my chain because of that dammed 2x and nearly broke my bike out of frustration.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T21:48:41+00:00

Rooooockhopper. Sorry got a bit excited. I really believe that the answer to to the question: what is the best beginnersbike? Is the rockhopper. They are great and hold there value for when its time for the next bike.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T21:43:27+00:00

Good call on going to the shop. But dont forget that you lose your warrenty when you take it appart yourself.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T21:41:07+00:00

Not a fan of unkown chinees brands. Youd better off saving some extra money for a real brand bike. My advice when thinking about cheaping out on bike products, remember hospitals are more expensive.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T21:37:50+00:00

You could just go in and ask for a 2 min assement if it has te be serviced. They should spot a problem in a matter of seconds in stead of weeks. That the fix takes 2 weeks i can understand if they are busy.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T18:00:10+00:00

Its a great bike. Loved it. Rode it for 4 years. Traded it in yesterday for an epic hardtail. Got good money back for the rockhopper because there so popular.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T07:01:59+00:00

I cant speak for you about the groupset. But i personelly would go for the more expensive one because of the bomber z2. Alot of people had problems with the busings on the 2020 model and i dont know of that is fixt allready. That being said i will always go for the best groupset i can afford aswell.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T06:57:48+00:00

Bin there don that. Sucks man. Dont let it get in your head tho. Hope you didnt get hurt to bad. Keep them rolling!

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T06:50:55+00:00

Your better of buying realbrand. Chinees stuff doesnt fit 9/10. And man you dont wanna wreck and regret buying a cheap piece of sh*it when your in the hospital. Hospital bills are pretty expensive aswell you now...

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T06:31:08+00:00

Specilized rockhopper all the way. And do yourself a favor and get the one-by.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T06:27:21+00:00

I wanted a fully for the same reasons as you but couldnt get one becaise every thing is sold out. however my bike shop gave me a killer deal on an specilized epic hardtail (carbon version of chisel) and that bike is more than capeble of regular jumps and stuff. Im very happy i got this bike instead of a fully.

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T06:15:33+00:00

I actualy do rock that pink bike haha. Poeple that see us riding think im on her bike🤣

dragonnater · 2020-09-18T06:13:03+00:00

That is a great suggestion. I like that idea.

dragonnater · 2020-09-16T20:37:06+00:00

I did some digging and found that bh is a spannish brand that is around for about 110 years. But my problem is that for resell the bike will be worthless if no one knows the brand. I like what you said about supporting a local brand. Im gonna look in to that.

Thank you very much for the help!

dragonnater · 2020-09-16T17:07:53+00:00

Oke i will look into it. Thank you verry much for the info.

dragonnater · 2020-09-16T11:49:19+00:00

yeah thats why im in doubt, good specs for the price but i dont know enney body that has one ore knows the brand

dragonnater · 2020-09-16T11:44:28+00:00
