Entry Level Budget Mountain Bikes from Big Brands

#mountainbike #hardtailmtb #entrylevelmountainbike
If you are looking to get in to mountain biking without breaking the bank, one of these bikes might be a great option. And honestly, these bikes would make decent bikes for doing a little bit of everything. They wont be the fasted bikes on pavement or gravel, but they would get the job done.

I'm so glad we had much better quality at the entry level when I started mountain biking in the mid-90s!

Ive a Cannondale Trail 8 for 3 or 4 yrs. All it needed was to thru the front and rear wheel . I refitted the crank with a Mid-drive EMTB motor. No regrets still running great with usual maintenance.

Another great video. I know it’s direct to consumer but in my opinion the Canyon Grand Canyon 5 is probably the best entry level hardtail for the money. 29er with Shimano Deore 1x12 drivetrain, Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes, Schwalbe tires & Suntour X1 100mm coil fork. It retails for $700 but it’s often on sale for around $500. I’m probably bias as I have a Stoic 3 that I love but the Grand Canyon packs a lot for the price

Bikes online or bikes direct…a bit more expensive but way better

"If you want to ride single track, these are some great bikes. Now watch me shred some gnar and jump which is something you really shouldn't do on these bikes." lol

Those prices for a rockhopper is nuts. That should be Hardrock pricing and Rockhopper's should be more!

i just bought a rockhopper sport for 540€. i compared several bikes (cannondale, trek, scott) that i can found in shops around, and the rock was the best option (along with scott) for components. i decided for specy rather than scott because i began with MTB with a 2000 rockhopper, and i was happy with its geometry, and because in the last 23 years i had: 2000 rockhopper, 1997 (maybe) dh palmer replica, 2003 demo9, 2013 (maybe) pitch, and i was always happy, they have a geometry that perfectly fits me.

[No_ReGretzky]

I have bad bad adhd and comment as video goes on, but i agree 1x drive trains r the best nowadays

Which one is better for entry level? Talon1 (found at 539eur) or Cannondale Trail 8 (price €420). Talon1 worth +€100 in price?

The problem with entry level budget bike is always quick release not boost compatible

Road biking background here, I bought a fatbike for the winter but I'm wondering if i need a front fork to hit some easier mountain bike trails this summer? My tires are 26x 4.8s

Radon ZR Team 6.0 at sale for 599€ looks good.
I have the radon ZR Team 8.0 and its pretty good for the price i think, so the 6.0 might be good too but i dont know.
I know it isnt one of the big brands especially outside Germany

500 dollars for a entry level bike, what a joke 😂
