Don't listen to all the cheap IH horse haters. Cheaper Ironhorses are decently specced for the cash compared to most other bikes in their range and the frames can take alot of abuse. They tend to be a bit on the heavy side though.

I'd take the low end Sachem over the lower end Warriors, and the Warriors over the Mavericks. As you go up in the levels, the parts get a bit better (fork, brakes, cranks etc.) You might be able to find the 07 base model Sachem for sale more in your price range now that it's 08. The 3.0 warrior isn't to bad for the price though.

Have you taken a look at specialized and kona's lower end bikes as well?

Basically you get what you pay for so buy the most expensive bike you can its worth it i ride an 07 maverick with upgrades and its been a great all around bike for me i've raced 4x and DS and ride DH trails all the time. Just make sure you get a dualy!

you want 1-1/8" as the guys said, any headset in that size will do it. And where are you from? If you live in the UK then buy it from chainreactioncycles.com
If you're from elsewhere though i'm afraid i can't help you
