Fuji Outland 29 1.5 (2013)

The Outland 29 1.5 is the secret weapon of those on a budget. Armed with a 20-speed Shimano drivetrain, Manitou's Tower Comp Air suspension fork, and a Radium Expert rear shock, you would think you're on a bike twice the cost. Your friends certainly won't know the difference as you pave the trail in front of them.
