When I started riding, I went from a Specialized Rockhopper (which i tried to convert trials, haha) to an Echo ES2. The Echo was tricked out in seriously the finest stuff. I think I was kind of pampered with that bike, considering my abilities. Also, riding a stock bike to learn on was a good experience, but I think I would have progressed faster if I went from my mountain bike to a mod. I ride stock now, but I'd recommend starting out with a mod. Wait for the price to come down a little, and do your best at haggling.
