Which bike to rent
Going up to Sundance with some friends on Tuesday the 26 and don't want to use my own bike. I'm going to rent one from UVU and need some input on what to get.
They don't supply brand names on their website but they do have this info
Mountain Bike-Full Susp $30 $45 $20
Mountain Bike-29er $25 $40 $15
days 1 2-3 add.
I've never ridden down any of Sundance trails but would say I'm a novice biker having hit PC MTN. Resort last year and just getting back from Moab where I did Amassa Back and Souvern.
I've been wanting to try out a 29er for a while but what would be better for the trials,
hardtail or full sussie?
Thanks
ride on, be safe

It depends on what you are going to do. If you are planning on just riding the lift up and bombing back down, get the burliest full suspension you can find. If you plan on doing a mix of XC and DH, try the 29er. The larger wheels will soak up some of the bumps without adding the weight of a downhill bike.
Outside is the best side

I concur but I always go for full suspension when I am not familiar with the trail - you never know when you'll need the full travel. You can always to test a 29r and if they have a full sus 29 then all the better
