I'm looking for a bike

Today I found a Trek 7200FX only a few mos old in stock condition for $275

Also found a 3yr old Trek 4300 for $350

Looks like it has Bar grips, toe clips, water bottle holder, and toepeak bag included.

Seems to be in pretty good condition..

And lastly a Trek 4900 for $275

Rock Shox front shocks.
Body Geometry Saddle
Aluminum frame
Its 4yrs old and in pretty good condition



What do you guys think I should go for?
I plan on doing light mtnbike riding, trail riding and paved road riding.

The Trek 7200, doesn't have a suspension fork so being a 26" alum. bike it will beat the fillings out of your teeth on a rocky path.

Trek 4300, a little pricy and toe clips are teh suck.

Trek 4900, great price for a great bike. I would purchase this one.

Make sure to wear a helmet!!!!!

Are you looking for a mountain bike or a hybrid?

Two different types of bike there.

Where do you plan to ride the most?

apparently he's a Trekie.
anyway if you plan on doing any sort of mountain biking on rough trail then you could eliminate the 7200FX. I'll go with the 4900.

4900 for sure.

Make sure the frame size is right for you!

What did you end up getting?

(I have a 4300 myself 🙂)
