Following this with interest as despite the sloping top tube I do like the look of this bike and a recent tax rebate means I could splurge if I wanted to

I would. :Looked at one last year. Canny piece of kit for the price.

That's it, the price is good, as I have sold four bike from my collection and the shed is looking empty ,
But I not sure if it will get used.
But the price i so tempted

Everyone should have a Mountain Bike.

Nice HT and not a bad spec for that price - due mainly to the rigid forks.

I hate it when they take a good bike and cheap-out on the components - just to put a set of suspension forks on, that you would probably change anyway.

Oh that's proper.

Steel, rigid, correct colourway. It were all fields.

OP you should unquestionably buy this bike.

As the review on bike trader as posted by @Cycleops shows a mixed of SRAM x5and x7, on my old Boardman comp, had the same set up, not a nice compo,
Especially X5 shifters.
But I guess all is easy to change.

Otherwise it tick most of my boxes.

I think a little longer about it before I say yes.

Oh dear @User19783 keep strong

 

[User19783]

Thanks @biggs682 i am so trying to.

I've got another 4 bikes to sell, which will bring the number of bikes I owned,down to acceptable figure, but finding it hard to say no.

It doesn't help with the weather so good, there's nothing like bombing along a riverside tow path and with plus size tyres, bonus.

You know, you could always build your own. - At least you get the spec you want and not just the one you can afford.

I don't think I will buy pre-built ever again
