I’m looking for recommendations on mountain bikes.
Between my higher than normal blood pressure (147/101), smoking(pack a day) and weight(212) my Dr. wants me to start exercising. If I run or jog outside my knees end up hurting and the treadmill is just too boring. So I thought about taking up mountain biking. I’m not to far from the foothills so I think I might actually enjoy it.
I have tried doing some research on the internet but I haven’t come up with much. The only thing I know is that I want a hard tail and don’t really want to spend more than $700 unless its really worth it.
Anybody have any experience with mountain bikes? Any positive or negative comments are welcome
Thank you
Jeff
