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.


Hardtail


Entry level Hardtail: $400 - $700


Mid-Level Hardtail: $800 - $1,300


Enthusiast Level Hardtail: $1,400 - $2,500


Race Level Hardtail: over $2,500


Full Suspension


Entry level: $1,000 - $1,700


Mid-Level: $1,800 - $2,300


Enthusiast: $2,400 - $3,500


Race Level: Over $3,500
