Hi all, been having a look around and seems a pretty good place to be!

I'm after a new MTB, not really sure which one though as I seem to change my mind every day. Budget is around £350 for a new bike, did think about buying used but i'm a little worried it may have problems.. Ideally i'd like the following -

Nice light frame
100mm lockable forks
Hydraulic disc brakes
18" frame
Able to take a bit of punishment on trails aswell as comfortable on the road

I realise I may have to up the budget a bit. Most seem to have either decent lockable forks or hydraulic brakes, not both :?

All info much appreciated.. :D
