First Bike - MTB vs Road

[Cyclewizz]

CAMPY is a MUST HAVE groupset.

Best on the planet !!!!

[_Daemon_]

Go for a 29er hardtail, mtb so ride anywhere, and the 29er wheels with slicks makes the bike that little bit faster and better on the road if you do plan on going on some group road rides.

MTB.

 

If you wanna play on the road, you can get the right tyres for that too.

Okay MTB it will be then

 

Next question..

 

Hardtail or Dual Suspension?

So all the time you've been on the hub you did not even own a bicycle?...

Was Thinking the same thing.

Get that Giant you posted earlier. But then again you should maybe start with a Hard tail to build up some skills first

Didnt have time this weekend, but I am going to go to a couple of shops now to see what I can get

I follow MotoGP, I don't have a full race preped GP machine.

I haven't read the thread but have you considered 2nd hand?

Exactly! I have always been a cycling fan but never really thought of riding myself. Also been working on Saturdays for the last 4 years so between golf and family etc I haven't had the time.

I have but I haven't really seen anything that I like or that fits within my budget.

Not a big fan of buying second hand, but I wont say no to a good deal

If medium is your size just buy that bike. I ride an Anthem X and enjoy it very much, cost me over R22k new though so that's a bargain. It will give you more enjoyment than any 29er hardtail.
