What mountain bikes have a RELAXED geometry?
I am looking for a good quality full-suspension mountain bike with a more relaxed geometry due to recently damaged cervical (neck) vertebra. My old Turner Nitrous has just too radical a position for me. Any suggestions?
If you own a Turner Nitrous, then you’re rockin’ old school XC racer all the way. It is definitely way to radical for you now.
I’ve come to the conclusion that many of the newer bikes are designed for the serious weekend warrior, and that’s actually a really good thing. I’m leaning toward the All Mountain category for my next bike myself.
For the mass produced bikes out there, I personally like the Specialized bikes. The Enduro is a sweet ride with 6″ of travel and a great upright seating position. For those with a bit deeper pockets, the Santa Cruz Blur LT (not the XC) or the Nomad would be a great choice.
But what matters most is what works best for you. There is simply no replacing going to a bike shop and test riding bikes till you find one that fits you and your needs. Sometimes you can rent them for a day or even rent them at a mountain.
Whatever you decide to do, happy trails!
