Hi Rowl. I mean I cylced as a kid but not really anything since. Ya 10 - 15 would work. I would go new or use the hub . I dont even know what type of mountain bike to get !

Hi all. Ive decided to buy a mountain bike for fitness but need some help . Im 194 cm , 120 odd kgs , 39 years old. Mostly want to cycle around farm roads and coastal forests on the KZN North Coast. I dont really know what to look out for , but know that I dont want to buy something heavy which I am not going to enjoy . What should I be looking at getting into this. I realise budget is as long as a piece of string but what should I be looking at if I am just starting off , want something relatively affordable, but dont want something heavy and crap which is going to put me off? Appreciate any advice
