hi guys,
I am looking at buying a hardtail that i can do a bit of everything with, from cycling the few miles to work to bombing about up the forest etc.
my choices are:-

or

Hard one that.
Think I'd have the Focus, better groupset, pretty good fork, not a Reba that everyone raves about but certainly never heard anybody complain about them and you'd have a nicely colour coordinated shed with your 'dale!
Wish I had the same dilemma!0 -
Malt4 with a 2008 xt upgrade option which i think after the "add to basket 10% discount" comes very close to the bee's price. had mine nearly a year now and it's been great0

Hi Felix,,,,,,,,,personally its got to be Malt 4,just picked mine up last week from Merlin Cycles after a 3 month wait and im chuffed to bits with it
Not been off road just yet but use it to work and im very impressed with it 8) .Thing that stands out is how light it feels when riding,had Giant Terrago before and thought that was light, but Malt4 is a lot lighter........................
Great looking bike and great spec for price,so my advice is get 1 ordered NOW
