I recently spent a bunch of time trying to figure out which bike to buy and kept running into the same issue. There’s too many options, especially when you’re trying to stay within a specific budget. Most guides didn’t really help narrow things down in a practical way, so I put together a small tool to filter options based on budget and a few preferences. It’s pretty simple, but it helped me a lot, so I figured I’d share it here in case it’s useful to others: rippinmtb.com
Would love any feedback too. Still adding bikes and improving it.
You don’t have mullets for wheel size or downhill for bike type. But also anyone who can answer all those questions will already know what bike they want.
I just tried searching for an enduro bike and it didn’t really work. It recommended two all mountain bikes and an XC race bike. All three bikes were in the same brand and it is a brand I’d never ever consider buying.
It would be interesting and useful if you could filter in other ways also. Like frame material, suspension design or a specific geometry or characteristic (such as anti-squat %, stack height,frame stiffness, etc).
That also gives a good idea to suggest multiple brands. I never though of that!
You never thought to suggest multiple brands? Really?
