 Diamondback vs. Felt
I'm looking to buy a new MTB but, I'm just getting into MTB'ing so I need some help. I've narrowed it down to an '08 Felt Q620, '08 Diamondback Response Sport, and '09 Diamondback Response Sport Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I have a diamondback response. Its pretty sweet, but I have to get it fixed a lot cuz I thrash it down single tracks. I got it from sport challet and they have this Extended Service Plan, so for 2 years you can thrash the crap out of it for like $50 and just take it in and get it fixed. I've had it for like 5 months and the cranks and gears get a little sloppy sometimes and the front shocks are done for, but I just took it in and they put new ones on for free. I also broke the plastic pedals after 2 days and they gave me new metal ones for free. So I love my bike cuz I have the plan, but otherwise I don't think I would be too happy with it.
