What do you think of this hardtail for the price?

[Dave7]

I'm shopping around and saw this in the sale-some £400+ off (apparently). I was looking to spend £1K but could push the boat out if it's really worth it.
I've never had a hartail or MTB and not sure if this company allows you to try so am only going off the spec'.

Great-thanks. I had googled it but couldn't see any reviews..........
Having read that I don't think it's for me as I'm certainly (at my age) not going to be racing and the reviewer makes the point that it isn't nice when ridden at less than serious speed.
