Dear All,
I am in the process of buying a new bike and would appreciate some advice. I have a budget of £1000 (I'm hoping to put this on a cycle to work scheme, if this is a factor in any way?). I am looking for a Freeride / Downhill bike to replace my Scott nitrous 30 which I will be selling shortly.
I have found a few prospects (listed below) - but does anyone out there have any other suggestions as to what I can get for this price :?: Also any comments about my selection so far?
I am considering:
Giant Glory 1:
£1049
Kona Stinky:
£969
Iron Horse Yakuza Kumicho (although I am still unable to find it with a price tag closer to £1000):
£1199
Has anyone been able to find these bikes at a lower price?
Cheers

Well, there is a factor, that is no one will ever believe a DH bike is the best thing to ride to work on! Unless you live on the Matterhorn.0
