is this a good mountain bike for the price? I have a road bike and want a decent mountain bike for actual mountain biking..not sure what year it is, i just emailed and asked. Has a Deore groupset btw.
>I'm selling my Marin Nail Trail 9.6. It's a 29er mountain bike with a great set of components.
The bike says that it's a Medium, but it feels more like a large. I'm 5'10" and I think it would work for someone as tall as 6'.
The bike shifts gears and brakes very, very well. As I mentioned earlier, it has a great set of components, and it just feels super solid when you're riding it.
The bicycle has a Rockshox air fork, hydraulic disc brakes, a thru-axle on the front wheel, 3x9 gears, upgraded pedals, an upgraded seat/saddle, and an aftermarket chain slap protector.
Rockshox is a leader in fork technology, and an air fork makes the front of the bike lighter and MUCH more maneuverable, as well as extremely adjustable. I have a pump that will allow me to adjust the bike to your weight if you're interested.
The hydraulic brakes are super responsive and solid. And hydraulic brakes allow you to just use a single finger on the brake lever while all the rest are holding onto the handlebars during your ride!
A thru-axle on the front allows for greater strength, rigidity, and control during your ride.
I'm asking $475.
