Oh B*****r!
Out on a trail near Epsom Downs yesterday and my Marin nail trail was stamped on by a horse - we had hopped over a fence to let the horses past but one spooked and stamped! Riders went off giving us a mouthful and i can't trace them!
Verdict from my LBS is that the bike is dead - the very nasty dents and creases in the frame are not a pretty sight.
So, I'm in the market for a new bike and the collective wisdom of the panel is invited!
I do tracks and trails, no adrenaline junkie stuff, and the occasional off road tour like the trans Cambrian mtb route
The LBS pointed me in the direction of a Whyte 901 - which is the price point i am looking for. Reviews seem good, but what else should i be looking at?
