So basically, im a fairly athletic person, and I was going to get into airsoft, but as all of the people I was getting together for a squad pussied out, it seems this is no longer a viable option. So, with 100 bucks in my pocket and 200 coming in for my airsoft stuff, I was woundering, what would be a good mountain bike to start with? I have been biking for years, but I have never owned a mountain bike. Please leave a link with you post if you can.

walmart and the like really has some NICE moutian bikes with full suspensions and everything. Only thing is, if you want to get serious you will need to buy new brakes at a bike shop, but it will still end u being more affordable.

I bought a Schwinn street bike to ride around campus, and it was amazing. So when I got into mountain/trail riding, I bought another from Schwinn. Too bad it still hasn't come in. I'd say they're probably your best bet.
