Here, let me help you rephrase your question...
Hey guys. I'm looking to get a more capable bike than the ____________ I currently have. My current bike is great, but it won't do _________________as well as I'd like. I'm somewhat confused about the bikes in this category and would like some assistance.
My riding style is _____________. The types of trails I would normally ride with this bike are _____________________. I might also occasionally ride ____________with it. The most important feature/characteristic of the bike I would buy would be _________________. Secondary would be ________________.
I'm looking to spend around $____. The max I'd spend is $____.
I'm trying to create a shortlist of bikes to check out. If you could help me create a list, it would be greatly appreciated. If you have any bikes you could recommend, and some pros/cons of each particular bike, that would be awesome.
Once I have a list of bikes, I will then go test ride as many of them as I can, do some more research, and make my own decision on which bike I will buy. Thanks.
