A hardtail is basically a bike that hasn't got a rear suspension. It's usually used for Mountainbikes. MTBs are available in three "flavors":
- Rigids (stiff fork and stiff frames)
- hardtails, HT (suspension forks and stiff frames)
- Full-Suspension, FS (suspension forks and suspension frames)
Other bikes as a rule don't have suspension components, so it's pretty much only for MTBs that you need to keep track of the different styles.

How much does it cost to build 1 mile of mountain bike trail?
It depends on what you're looking for in a bike. You can always get a $100 so-called "Mountain Bike" from a big-box store, but these will not perform in any capacity off-road. There are a few grades (or price divisions) of mountain bikes, based on component spec. Prices also vary based on suspension. A "hardtail" (only front suspension) will be far less expensive then a full-suspension bike. Most manufacturers only produce full-suspension starting at the mid-level or enthusiast level.HardtailEntry level Hardtail: $400 - $700Mid-Level Hardtail: $800 - $1,300Enthusiast Level Hardtail: $1,400 - $2,500Race Level Hardtail: over $2,500Full SuspensionEntry level: $1,000 - $1,700Mid-Level: $1,800 - $2,300Enthusiast: $2,400 - $3,500Race Level: Over $3,500
