I'm with you on one of the biggest barriers to getting into MTB being bike cost. A bigger one is trail access. No one is going to get into a sport if they have to drive 60+ minutes to try it out. Most of our current trails popped up in wealthy areas where the bike/ski/climb culture was already there.
