The Bobcat Trail range is arguably the start of their 'proper' mountain bike lineup - the cheaper Bolinas Ridge bikes notwithstanding - and all the bikes share the same aluminium frame with 120mm of travel up at the front paired to 650b wheels on smaller sizes and 29" hoops on the bigger bikes.The Bobcat Trail 3 is the most basic bike in the range but, like the others, the frame is well made and featured, with sleek internal cable routing, nicely finished welds and the ability to eventually upgrade to a tapered steerer fork thanks to a 44mm headtube, though all the bikes come with straight steerers. The SR Suntour XCM HLO might claim 120mm of bounce but I suspect very, very bad things would need to happen to get it to compress that much and the open dropouts and skinny legs mean noone will be accusing it of being precise in a hurry.That's unsurprising on a budget machine, though the coil rather than air spring does mean it's much harder to correctly tune the fork to ride weight in the first place.
If you want to ride proper off-road trails, a tyre upgrade should be fairly high on the menu regardless.If you're on a tight budget but still have big dreams of ripping around in the dirt, there's an awful lot to like about the Bobcat Trail 3.

The top-end £895 Bobcat Trail 5 is the first in the lineup to come with a single ring drivetrain too, which is a shame.What is nice to see is that the bike gets proper hydraulic disc brakes - it seems cable discs have been deservingly shunted to the scrap heap of history, even on entry-level bikes.
