I'm keen to buy a mountain bike, but am new to the area. Could anyone recommend any good mountain bike shops in the Durham area.
Hope to see you out on the trails soon.
Claire

I can recommend Bikesport in the centre of Darlington - got my current bike from there. If you are ever in the Lake District try the shop at Grizedale Forest visitor centre - you can test the bike round the forest before buying...
