  3. It all depends on what kind of riding you want to do. always check the warning labels on the stem, shox, etc. as some say only intended for leisure use and not hard cross country or downhill, so the last thing you want is equipment failure when gunning it down a hill. My first bike after 10 years was a silverback saturn, disk brakes and 24 speed. Served its purpose, but realised i needed more, and so the addiction starts. Enjoy, it only gets good from here!
