Summary: <a href="https://images.singletracks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/bike_recommendations.jpg"></a><br> Perhaps the number one question we get on social media, via email, and on the Singletracks forums is this one: Which bike should I buy? Choosing a new mountain bike is a big decision, so we’ve dedicated this entire episode to sharing our personal recommendations for mountain bikes in the following categories:<br> <br> * Hardtail<br> * XC Race<br> * Trail 27.5<br> * Trail 29er<br> * Enduro<br> * DH<br> * Bikes above $4,000<br> * Bikes under $1,500<br> <br> For the first six categories, we each choose bikes that retail for less than $4,000 (and in some cases, much less.) We also provide our recommendations for ultra-expensive bikes and budget bikes in the final two categories.<br> &starf; If you’re enjoying the Singletracks podcast, please <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/singletracks-mountain-bike/id1046094700?mt=2&ls=1">leave a quick review on iTunes</a>.
