I’m looking to purchase a bike and have it narrowed down to 2 bikes (open to suggestions). It’s been around 15 years since I last rode regularly, and that was turning a Specialized P1 into an AM bike.
I’d like to ride a little of everything and where I’m currently located (interior Alaska) doesn’t have any truly burly trails that I’d ride regularly so I’ve settled on a Trail oriented bike.
I’ve got my eye on a Norco Fluid FS A3 and a Rossignol Trail Mandate Deore 11. They’re both right around the same price and my max spending amount of $1700 shipped.
Thanks to everyone in advance!
