Hey, i'm new to this site but i have been riding a BMX for 2 years.

I have experience on trails, park and street but want to get a single speed MTB for trails also.

One they looks like this, can anyone improve my current knowledge and direct me to a decent bike thats an affordable price?

It looks more like a jump bike than a bike for riding trails on. And not much for your money either.

Riding trails is a lot different from BMX and the dirt jumps, gears can be very useful! And th ebikes seem better value, bizarrely.

So as a BMXer when you say trail you mean the jumps etc?

Just before people say that a micro drive SS MTB is not suitable for trail riding

i ride my local trails/dirt jumps on my bmx and have been for ages.

i'm not a fan of gears, too complicated for me! any bike that meets my requirements?

So you want a dirt jump bike with MTB sized wheels?
