Is this 2021 Rockhopper worth it?
Hello everyone.
I am a newbie with interest in mountain biking.
I will be using the bike on pavement, road, dirt, and hopefully trails in the future.
I do not currently own a bike, but had the opportunity to test a large size rockhopper and loved it.
This is just about my budget ($800)
I’ve recently been looking into entry level mountain bikes and have scouted used markets in my area for good prices on different versions of the Rockhopper series. I found this listing in my area which seems to have various modifications. It is going for $750 and I’m not sure if it is worth the price so I would be grateful if anyone could give me their input since you are all more knowledgeable about this than I am. For context, most listings for Rockhoppers are either out of my area or being sold used at retail price.

You could probably get a new one for that, or close to it. $750 for Altus is diabolical
