firstly, im deciding between a Gary Fisher Marlin, Giant Yukon, and Trek 4500. ive ridden the fisher, but havent tried the others
secondly, what are my options as far as carrying the bikes (as there are no trails within riding-distance). what different setups are there and how much do they cost? i have a coupe, but can get access to the van with the bike bars on its roof (needs some other stuff to mount bikes to, i believe?). is it possible to easily+quickly remove the 2 wheels and carry the bike in my trunk?
