Bauer Bicycles Hardline (2016)

The 2016 Bauer Bicycles Hardline is an entry-level mountain bike. Built on a light, sturdy aluminum frame, paired with a suspension fork for a very smooth ride, with suspension lockout for a quick trip to the trailhead. Kit is top-notch: Shimano's clean-shifting drivetrain is nicely complemented with Tektro's sure-stopping, all-condition mechanical disc brakes. Wheels are light, tough alloy, clad in treaded tires. A WTB saddle offers comfort even after long hours.
A good beginner's mountain bike.
