Hey fellow bikers,

I'm wanting to purchase a FS mountain bike this coming winter to be ready for spring.
I'm on a bit of a budget. But in lokking at the norco fluid 2 or the devinci django.
Wondering what maybe someone that has more experience then I would say is a better bang for your buck between these to bikes. I mostly ride the pines or turkey point, fanshawe, wildwood or trails similar to that.
Here are the links for each bike.

Looking forward to your thoughts. Thanks

I'm biased so my money would be on the Norco. I've ridden a Fluid and it's nice and playful. I looked at Divinci and a few reviews were very ho-hum. One reviewer said it was nice bike that handled well but there was something about the Django that he didn't like ie it didn't click for him. I like that the Fluid is a little cleaner looking and I prefer internally routed cables. Some guys say it makes accessing the cables easier which is true but I've owned bikes for years and the only time I had to replace a cable was when I upgraded brakes but running the new line didn't take more than a couple extra minutes of time and some dental floss.

Hey thanks for.that. I've looked at that bike a hundred times and never noticed that about the external cables. I like the look of the devinci frame better and colours but the internal cable of the norco I think is a game changer for me. Thanks
