I currently own a 19" Trek 4500 and am hoping to upgrade to a Specialized Hardtail. (Any thoughts on this new bike?) I feel that the 19" frame is a little on the small size for me, being 6' 1" and weighing 210lbs.

Any help would be greatly appreciated before the bike shop guy trys to sell me what he has in stock...

Thanks in advance for your help.

I will be riding the bike to work almost everyday and on the way home, I ride the dirt open space trails and I want to be able to go shred on the weekends to keep in shape for motocross.

I am definitely willing to give up street performance to have better trail performance. No extreme downhills or jumping though....

My price range is about $1200.00-$1500.00
