Thanks a million - This chart shows I should be riding a XL . . . sounds good. Full susser, here I come !!!

I haven't been riding for about 3 to 4 years and took the bike for a test ride yesterday. I'm not sure what to expect from the bike so I cannot tell if it shout be comfortable or uncomfortable ?? the bike felt great and was very responsive. I'm soooo confused ....

Thanks - would I not experience any difficulty with handling or any discomfort on a long outride ??

I'm 1.88m tall about 100kg. I'm currently looking at buying a duel suspension bike. The problem is that the bike I'm interested in is a XL (25"). A decent Scott and I will only be doing some casual xc riding. My questions are: 1. What is the actual size that is suitable for my length? 2. What problem do I face if I decide to buy the XL bike ? Thanks guys.

Thanks for the advise, does help a lot. Thanks again.

Any advise here ??? Thanks

I'm just starting out, so probably some cross-country riding with the odd race here and there.

Some advise needed. Which is the better of the two bikes ?? Giant Reign or the Schwinn 405 Elite Thanks.

I haven't been riding for about 5 years and are looking to buy a new bike to get back into the saddle, so to say. Looking at new or 2nd hand bikes can be so confusing and would appreciate some input from all you veterans. I'm looking to spend between R5'000 and R7'000. My question is do I buy a new bike in that price range or do I buy a 2nd hand bike that most probably sold 12 months ago for R10'000 ?? I'm currently looking at the following bikes: - 2009 GT Avalanche 1.0 (2nd hand) - Raleigh Namib (New) - Trek 4500 (New) Thanks.
