grahamc Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Very nice. Just the sort of thing I'd probably get too Went and had a long chat with the guys at the shop... and seemed the best bike for me. Was one that was £160 cheaper, but I got uprated brakes, front suspension and gearset. Well happy with it Just got to wait until saturday before I can pick it up EDIT - will let you know what its like!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl_S Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 just bought a bottom of the range specialized rock hopper. it does the biz, you need to be a little psychic to change the gears though. I paid £260 for 2009 edition. normally £300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
