I plan to get into the mountain bike scene. I'm a beginner at this therefore any valuable information will be greatly appreciated. I came across a used 2016 Cannondale Catalyst 2 listed on Kijiji which I can purchase for 300$. My understanding is that the MSRP in 2016 was 699$ + tx. Does anyone own this model and/or can anyone guide me if this is a good purchase.

I welcome other suggestions as well.

$300 is a relatively good price, but nothing extraordinary unless the bike has some upgrades that are useful to you. I would certainly suggest going to try it out. If it fits and rides well, I think $200 to $250 would be a fair price.
