The Ozark Trail M.2 Ridge Pro is changing the conversation around what the Best Budget Mountain Bike hardtail can actually be. With boost spacing, UDH compatibility, an air fork, modern geometry, and trail-ready components, this hardtail pushes far beyond what we normally expect from a big-box budget MTB.

In this video, I break down the Ozark Trail M.2 Ridge Pro hardtail from the frame and geometry to the fork, drivetrain, wheels, and brakes to see if it truly deserves the title of Best Budget Mountain Bike—with no upgrades and no hype. Just a real-world look at whether this hardtail is ready for actual trail riding straight out of the box.
