Shimano LX. I don't know where you live are what you ride, but check out http://www.REI.com if you're in the US or if you don't know how to work on your bike, find a good LBS. You have Alivio parts, and they are entry level designed to get you around town and light trail riding.

If you are jumping and riding trails with obstacles, remove the 3rd big ring and get a bash guard.

Good luck, Jim
