I am new to mountain biking and am looking to buy a new bike. Any help works. Thanks!!

I just purchased a mountain bike with Amarillo DS on the side of it, so I am assuming that is the brand. When I look it up online all I can find is things related to Amarillo, TX, which is not what I want. Does anybody have any thoughts or resources concerning this type of bike?

I know theres danscomp for bmx but is there a mail order site for mountain bikes and or dirt jumpers? I’m looking to build my own dirt jumper and i need a few parts.

For example, if a mountain bike is listed for $1,500, how much did the bike shop pay for the bike?
Answers from bike shop mechanics/owners would be very appreciated!!

For many years now, a lot of BMXers have demanded lighter bikes.
For example, a way to make BMX street/dirt bikes lighter would be to use MTB bottom brackets, cranks, aluminum seat posts. These parts are still strong but also lighter than bmx parts, especially mtb BB’s and cranks.
If BMX bikes used some of these parts, it would be easier to go to a shop and get parts if more parts utilized mtb parts.
Why aren’t manufacturers doing this?

Does anyone know if front and rear suspension adult mountain bikes come in different size frames, or is there only one? And second part of question .. Do front suspension mountain bikes come in different size frames? Thanks {UK only}

So… there’s the Fox face lookin’ logo, plus the fox tail logo, perhaps others. Is one logo more [or specifically] identified with mountain biking vs dirt bikes and motor vehicle use? Thanks!

I am looking for a quality men’s mountain bike for my husband. Where can I find a sports store or bike shop that would have a wide selection of new bikes available for immediate purchase? Or, where can I find an online retailer IN the Republic of Ireland. (Please do not provide me with UK online web stores.) Thank you!

I have a mountain bike with front and rear suspension, wide knobby tires, and a heavy frame.. if I get some road tires (still wide) for it, and lock the rear suspension, will it be easier for me to keep up with my friends riding their road bikes on the street? Or is it not worth trying and should I save my money up to buy a proper street bicycle?

What different type of shifters are available on mountain bikes, and what are the pros/cons of each?
