Hi Forum I'm keen to get back into cycling after a couple of years out. So basically what I am looking at is 1)Hardtail 2)29er 3)Between R0 and R10000 So far my prospective bike list is as follows 1) Cannodale SL2 Trail 29er (R8900) 2) GT Karakoram 3) Fuji Tahoe 2.0 (2011) 4) Merida Big Nine TFS 500 (2012) 5) Trek Mamba (2012) 6) Momsen AL329 (2012) (R10000) Any bikes I missed? Now I just have to choose! I've been told that an air shock is far superior to a mechanical coil one and according to my research the Momsen is the only one with a air shock? So what do you guys think, is the cost of an air shock justified/how important is it? (I really like the merida and cannodale) BTW I'm about 6 Foot and 75kgs Thanks
