    WTB: Pedal Bikes

    I'm looking for bikes for my wife and I. Looking for:

    for me - hardtail mountain bike - I'm 6'2" so looking for a large/xl depending on brand. I'd love to find something with decent forks and disk brakes but realistically I'm not going to be working it hard.

    for her - hybrid or mtn bike - she's 5'2" and not picky.

    Would also be interested in child seats/trailers.

    If any of you guys/gals have spares or bikes gathering dust let me know!

    Re: WTB: Pedal Bikes

    I'm not overly sure what you are looking for as far as vintage or cost but I have an older (2001 ish) Specialized Stump jumper hardtail. Has XT rear de-raileur and LX front I think. It has a working front shock (Rock shock), but everything needs a tune up. I'll throw in a spare set of tires I have for it. It is a large to XL frame, I'm about 6-2 or so as well. This bike was used heavily, but very ridable. No disc brakes though, but has clipless pedals. I haven't ridden it in years, if interested, make me an offer.

    Falko - YGPM

    NPDCA - thanks but I think that would be too small for me and too big for her.

    Manny - thanks but that sounds out of my budget.

    Re: WTB: Pedal Bikes

    I've bought two bikes in the past 3 months from bikesdirect.com

    Couldn't be happier with them

    I have a "sit behind the rider" child seat for a toddler. Attaches to the bike under the seat though, so not ideal on all model bikes (we had to put it on Rob's because mine had a shock there)

    Not sure if it is this exact model, but if not it looks eerily similar. Would sell for cheap, only used it a handful of times, never crashed.

    We have my wife's Gary Fisher front suspension bike.

    Was used for less than two hours since new. I'm not kidding.

    Can send pictures if you are interested. She's the same height as your wife and was sized for it.
