I am a BMX rider who wants to get into mtb, is this bike good enough to start riding trails and jumps? What should I upgrade? It is my first mtb and I got it for £120
In the states this bike is sold at the retailer REI under the name CO-OP DRT 1.1.
It’s a very basic entry level hardtail that gives you mostly what you need to get started.
It’s a decent bike. Wouldn’t take it on any jumps but for pedaling around on trails with minimal chunk it’s pretty good.

yea, it’s always nice to start mtb with a hardtail that a nice bike to start with.
I dont think u should add any upgrades instead ride the hell out of that bike and when u star feeling that it is holding u back quite a bit then it would be time to buy a new one. I suggest buying a used one because it is half the price and many are still in very good condition u just have to check everything before buying
