    It has a good spec, and if it's £400 I would buy it, even if it's £450.

    Thanks, ive bought it now....

    £419 in total with delivery :)

    Hopefully this will be a good starter bike for me. Thinking its a good price as its £550 list price and with the prices of bikes going up next year roughly for the same spec to £600-650ish im happy enough.

    I like the colour on the aspect 20, but think i prefer the aspect 45.

    Anyway here is a high res photo of the bike ive purchased.

    :shock: You are a very lucky man. :D
    For those money I don't think you can find a bike with similar or better spec.
    Enjoy it mate. :D
