Hi, I am planning to purchase my first bikem and have been in thought between the three bikes:
* GT Avalanche Comp (**Price**: 580 euros/ 623 dollars) – [link](https://ivanhoecycles.com.au/products/gt-avalanche-comp-black);
* GT Avalanche Sport (**Price**: 636 euros/ 684 dollars) – [link](https://www.tradeinn.com/bikeinn/en/gt-avalanche-sport-29-2021-mtb-bike/137937270/p);
* Specialized Rockhopper Sport (**Price**: 610 euros/ 656 dollars) – [link](https://www.specialized.com/us/en/rockhopper-sport-29/p/199575?color=319797-199575)
I consider myself a newbie when it comes to bikes technology and systems, so what would you recommend for me to buy ? I will plan to drive this bike to work (commute) on asphalt, and also use it to drive some mountain terrain on the weekends.
Thank you.
