My first car was a '74 99LE purchased in '85 for $1,100.
Yes, good quality mountain bikes, REAL mountain bikes are very expensive. There's alot of low end dribble advertised as mountain bikes that are simply low quality street bikes dressed up.
The Fat Possum LX is a near top of the line all mountain bike, with a plush adjustable travel 5" front suspension, a 5" travel rear suspension, elevated chainstays, XT rear derailler, LX front derailler & shifters, Hayes Nine hydraulic disc brakes and a bunch of other things. The bike I _really_ wanted to get is a Rocky Mountain ETSX but at $3,000 compared to the '06 Fat Possum on clearance for $1,800 it was a no brainer. My only regret is that the Fat Possum is a bit of a heavy bike, whereas the Rocky Mountain is lighter...but then maybe that will help me get my fat butt back into shape more!
