Many things come into consideration in choosing a mountain bike such as the size, wheel, and features. It is vital to select a bike that is right for your needs. The first thing is getting the right bike size. To get the right size, compare and contrast the distance between the saddle and the bars with the distance between the crack center and the mid head tube. Make sure that the seat post does not overextend while using a short seat tube.
You'll also want to go for a wheel size of 27.5in or 29in. The 29er wheels are light and stiff with suitable frames and tires. For longer miles, go for more giant hoops and smaller hoops for crashing trails. Although large wheel sizes are appropriate on hardtails, they are susceptible to pressure.
Go for a full-suspension bike or a hardtail bike. The hardtails are standard, while the full suspension bikes come with extra manufacturing complications, linkage, bearings, and rear shock that cost money. Complete suspension bikes are advancing with advantages that outweigh their disadvantages.
That said, the bike's strength is more important than its weight, so check out for steering accuracy and cornering. Select suspension quality against quantity. Look up reviews on the bike and where applicable, get your chosen bike model from the manufacturer's site.
