Hi there!
As already mentioned, that kind of money ain't getting you anywhere
fun. Perhaps in the non suspension or second hand market.
Suspension choice is mostly based on your type of riding. If you ride
mostly cross country a front suspension only is the most common,
although my next bike will probably be a Gary Fischer with full
suspension.
Go to a dealer and try some models out and check what other people
thought at this site: http://www.mtbr.com
Remember that they'r not as firendly as AFOL's and sometimes they are
right off stupid.
Glad to see more ppl. share my two hobbies; Mountainbiking and LEGOing
:)
Ride hard, play well!
