How do i identify what brand mountain bike i have?

  • John Soko
    John Soko Feb 21, 2018

    Hey Kyle!
    .... does it really matter? Look at the brand and model of important components eg front forks, brakes, rims, hubs, front and rear changers, the gear shifters .... these will tell you a lot about the likely quality of .... weight of the bike. Whilst they wont ID the frame, it will give you an idea of the quality of the bike as quality components are rarely found on a cheap frame :)

The brand is on the head badge (on the part of the frame where the fork goes through to the handlebars). If that is missing, and there is no model name on the frame then it will be very difficult to ID brand. Please note that removal of the head badge may indicate the bike has been stolen, or that the bike has been repainted - often poorly. You don't need to know brand to work on it or to get parts..

What brand should I get?

Local Bike Shops (LBSs) generally all sell reputable brands. Most brands use similar components, so the major difference is often the frame. Look for a brand that has a good warranty, preferably a lifetime warranty, on the frame. Mountain bikes have become a very low-margin business, so many manufacturers are running in the red or may already be out of business; its preferable if yours isn't one of these. Still, unless you end up replacing the frame, it won't matter much over the long run what the brand is.

Also, there is a growing trend of extremely low-end manufacturers buying out reputable but cash-strapped brands purely for the name. They can then sell junk bikes with a good brand name on it. These bikes are usually sold at discount or sporting-goods stores, not bike shops.

How much should I spend for a mountain bikes?

As much as you can stand. For the first-time mountain bike buyer, the cost of mountain bikes may be a bit shocking. As a general rule, you'll pay the following: Junk hardtail < $300
Light-use hardtail $300-500
Intermediate hardtail $500-800
Race-ready hardtail $800-2,000
Boutique hardtail $2,000+
Junk full-suspension < $800
Light-use full-suspension $800-1,500
Intermediate full-suspension $1,500-2,000
High-end full-suspension $2,000+

How do I remove chainwheel sprockets fron a

They just might be, depending on the brand and pedigree of the crankset. Lower-end bikes usually have rivetted, stamped or even single-piece cranksets, so they're not designed to be replaced individually.

Bikes

You are in the wrong area of FixYa, but I can make some suggestions.
It depends upon what type of bike riding you want to do.
If you want to ride bikes over rough terrain and cross country then you need a mountain bike.
If you want to ride bikes on roads only then a road bike is what you need.
A mountain bike can be used on road surfaces but a road bike is not suitable on rough terrain.
If you want to bike race, then you need a racing bike, these are very light and expensive.
It is best if you go to a large bike shop and speak to the sales person or go to a bike club and ask questions. This will help you to decide what type of bike will suit you and your needs.
