Hello, I just bought a bike two weeks ago to try and get myself moving again. I've been riding on the streets so far and breathing in the fumes is killing me. So I did a search for NJ trails which led me here. I've never done any mountain biking before but it looks like it can get pretty addicting.
From what I've read so far on this site I've committed the cardinal sin by buying a bike from a retailer. I bought a Schwinn Protocol online from Dick's. I guess my question is if I take this thing on a trail will it just fall apart or is it a decent starter bike?
Can't wait to get out on the trails and into a new hobby. If anyone wants to show a newb the ropes let me know. I work nights and am going to school so i'm down for morning rides on Tuesdays and fridays and the weekends.
