[QUOTE="bikepilot, post: 939031, member: 56976"] Any of the speciality brands (i.e. not stuff you would find at wall mart) make great bikes. In my experence Iron horse, Kona, Giant and Specialized tend to be the strongest players in terms of value (of course they also make some high end stuff too). for the record I've got a Kona Stab (8" travel dh bike) - great bike, super durable Proflex/K2 Animal/K1000 free-ride/XC bike (decent, but rather finicky, frame flexes too much and breaks too easily). I would strongly recomend against K2 as they do not stand behind their products and do not honor their warrenties. My head tube seperated from the rest of my bike while riding, of course I crashed shortly there after. The seperation/break occured while riding in bumpy, but normal off road conditions. When I bought the bike it was advertised to have a life time warrenty on the frame. I sent it in to K2 through the local bike shop as per proper procedure. K2 responded that their experts determined that i drove into a parking garage with it on the roof of my car and that's how it broke, of course this was not the case, I don't even have a roof rack and it was obvious how it failed. After months of hounding them I still had no success getting it warrenteed and couldn't even get my broken frame back. Cannondale R400 rode bike, great quality, ride is a bit stiff. Ridgeback messenger bike (commuted to school while living in the UK on it) - great bike, components are a little disapointing compared to what you'd get in the US for the same price. [/QUOTE]
