With countless options available in the market for mountain bikes, it can get challenging for a beginner to decide what to buy. The question of whether to buy the best hardtail mountain bikes or the best full-suspension mountain bikes still remains.

While both have their own benefits, we suggest starting with a hardtail mountain bike as a hardtail gives you a much more direct trail experience than a full suspension bike. Riding a hardtail encourages you to pick your lines more carefully and be more active on the bike, using your legs to absorb the bumps on the trail.

The best mountain bike offers component packages, predictable handling, and a fair price for a beginner. Check out our list of the best mountain bikes that will allow beginners to experience the real fun of mountain biking.
