    Default Mtn bike wanted for a rider 5' 4"

    I have a friend looking for a used mtn bike so she can get some mtn biking on trails in as well as some scooting around town with her kids. She's 5' 4" and has budgeted $400. I know this is a little low for a decent bike, but putting the word out there. Anyone need to make room in the stable? I'd say at 5' 4" she's going to need a small frame if 26" wheels (I take a medium and I'm 5' 6"), or x-small for larger wheels. I could be guessing wrong, but that's what I'm thinking.
    I wanna ride!

    This has been a while, but I have a decent dual suspension 26 inch that worked for me fantastic in Italy on the firetrails and down hills.

    Not sure the worth, but to get someone into the sport, it is an HM Bike FSL. German made.

    There's a Gary Fisher Mamba 29er, small frame (15.5") on Craig's List for $250. It's in Washington, Iowa. It looks very decent for the price.
