Hi all
Looking for a mountain bike less than $300 for my 13 year old daughter in time for christmas. It will not be used for bush bashing, just riding locally and to school and back eventually.
Mountain bike is preferred as the school ride is quite hilly.
I have no clue these days on brands and so on and I've never owned a mountain bike.
cheers
How tall is she?
Those are 20" kids bikes for 6 years old
24" would be topping out at 13 years old so if you want it to last more than a few months you'd need an Extra Small XS adult bike like this which is well out of the $300 price range

But for a girl I'd go for an XDS hybrid cruiser like this 15" frame would be perfect size and 7 speed for climbing that will last her a very long time

How tall is your daughter? Probably need a small sized adult bike.
The reality of a $300 budget means bottom of the rung quality unless you go second hand.
