    Do you like cross country kind of riding? where there is pedaling involved or just start at the top and ride all the way down?

    Really depends on what you get. Kona, Norco, Rocky Mountain, Transition, Specialized, Santa Cruz, Intense, Giant are all well known good quality brands

    I paid almost as much for my Nomad as I did for my KX250...LOL. Mountain bikes are expensive.

    Those Giant's are decent bikes.

    here is one. its right at your limit and a few years old but it should be good for up and down

    http://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/1097979/

    i would definitely check out pinkbike. you probably want a longer travel bike like in the 160mm range if your gonna be hitting snowshoe. I know a guy that said its top 3 bike parks that he has been to and hes been to a lot on the east coast. anyways he said he would definitely recommend atleast 160mm of travel there so this enduro is pretty close

    Just like chicks or vehicles, there is no best, only lots of great ones that excel in different but equally good ways. If you're having fun & it makes you feel good about what you're doing then it's a winner. :D

    fuck. my stupid rear suspension bushings on my old stumpjumper FSR went kaput. my bike is just old enough that it is questionable whether specialized will still carry the parts. my bike shop is going to call them today.

    i am not ready to buy a new bike. i need to get my wife through med school without loans.

    Good luck.
