Great review Cooper!
My first bike was a used stumpjumper hardtail that I bought for $100 on craigslist and broke every part of. Riding a hardtail taught me a lot, was all I could afford at the time, and it was a great way to try out a new sport! Bikes like these have such a huge place and I'm eternally grateful to have had that low-barrier way of trying out mountain biking, and then letting it take all my money for the rest of my life.
..also, vans FTW
