I am wanting to start biking. I would like to go into wooded trails, and mountains upnorth. I dont want to spend a whole lot of money, I just want a bike that would fit what im doing, and to last a while. I want disc brakes, and at least 18 gears, and dual suspension, if possible. What bike company should I go with that has the best bike for your buck?
your not going to find a good dual suspension for cheap. and for mountain biking a hard trail riding it add cost to so the bike can handle it… this is what i would go with..

both have disk brakes and are made for Mountain biking, you never really stated a budget so i don’t really have much to go on
if you need a much cheaper bike this is the best no disk brakes but a very strong bike over all with a cassette hub and Strong double walled rims
