I'm pretty ignorant of mt. bike specs, quality, categories, etc... I've done enough research on here and other sites to know a little bit of jargon, and have visited two bike stores now. The last one I went to recommended a Cannondale Jekyll 600 as a good starter bike; for trail riding (up and downhill) along with the occasional big(ger) mountain outing, is the Cannondale a good choice? The salesperson was very helpful but I just wanted to get an idea of other manufacturers and models that may be good for a little under $2K.
I've putzed around on friends' bikes but this will be my first bike. Thanks.
