Mountain Mtb Bike
mountain bike help? Scott MTB

So I have been looking for a MTB. I'm interested in hardtail bikes, since they are usually lighter and faster. When I look at full suspension bikes, they seem to be able to sustain more extreme riding. My question is, how much more can a full suspension sustain than a hardtail bike? is it worth it to go for the more expensive full suspension? would I have to worry about the bike jumping off a rock riding a hardtail? thanks in advance!

to answer your question, it'd help to know what MTB discipline(s) you're interested in. DHers deffinitely want full suspension. as do huckers and free-riders (but usually a bit lighter, and not with a double crown fork). XC and all mountain riders could go either way. I ride XC, and love my hardtail Stumpjumper. a friend of mine has the FSR Stumpy, another friend rides a fully rigid SS, for the same trails. for us, it's personal preferences. so, I'm back to asking what type of riding you're doing? that'll start you on your way to deciding what bike..
