Hi! I’m looking to pick up my first mountain bike, and hopefully progress to hitting some jumps on it. I’m looking at the Co-Op DRT 1.2.

Is there a better proposition? This bike has been brought up before but it seems to have been upgraded since being posted last. From what I understand I should be looking for, it has a a one by drive train, Shimano brakes, a decent looking fork, and shares the same frame as the 1.3, meaning it’s dropper post compatible.

Does the upgrade make the bike worth it? Or is is still out of date? Thanks for any advice!
