I reside in [occupied] Palestine, it’s quite hilly over here in Yerushalayim. I ride a GT Avalanche, 24spd, gr8 RST fork with Lock Out, Alex Rims Double Walled wheels, etc… I LOVE it.
Much better than my old Diamondback which was stolen by arabs.
Best bit is It cost me just 600NIS/$170 (used, done about 2000miles)!!!
