Well since ski season is over, I want to do something over the summer. I was looking at beginner mtn. bikes and my local shop has the 820 and 4100 model in. Any suggestions or recommendations?
I wanna go to High North!

i have a trek bike. Its pretty good. I've had it for like 5 years. The gears are pretty fucked up but Trek doesnt make the gears. Shimano does.

I don't know anything about that model or how it compares to other bikes but trek makes quality bikes. Make sure it fits you and find a good shop,I find the small shops are a lot cooler than the larger ones. Find one with a good local reputation.

my friends has the 4100, the frame is bombproof, the componenets not so much, but if you're beginning go for it and you can always upgrade cause the frame is awesome
