WTB: Cheap Beginner MTB $150 - $200

[soundz]

A friend is looking for a beginner mountain bike in the $150-200 range. He is 5'6" so probably a size small. Let me know what you got?

I thought this was an ad looking for a first year prostitute.

Go $300 and you can have my rockhopper, disc brakes and a Reba race fork on it. It's a 17" but it's small, much smaller than my m trek and m epic.

I'm 5'6" and started on a 17" rockhopper and it fit perfect. Young rob actually has one as well and he is 5'6" too.

I've got a small Trek 920 - $200. It has hardly been ridden.

He decided to go with Luke's prostitute. Thank you all!

Turns out my friend needs another bike in the same price range for his prostitute friend. Anybody got anything else?

cdrmtbiker, could you send me photo(s) of the Trek to soundz at soundz.org?

EDIT: I should also add that this new person is 5'4", 5'5", so looking for something like 14-15".

Yea I'll send some over tonight or tomorrow morning
