    norco got a new budget freeride bike for about that. the bikes arnt due in until the new year though
  • thanx well helpfull :lol::o:D:)
  • 2nd Hand or new? New I would say something along the lines of:
    Mongoose black diamond single,
    Bighit 1,
    Marks suggestion etc.etc.

    I personally would go 2nd hand. I managed to get myself a bighit 3 '06 last year for £920 with some nice little extras on it.
    This route you could pretty much get anything you desired:
    Specialized sx trail 2/ one of the demo's,
    Kona coiler, anything really it's all a case of patience with either route.
    Decide on your dream bike, set the price and wait. It will come!

    Do what you fear, you won\'t regret it.

    You are only as brave as your skill level.
  • you can get a kona stinky 07 for £900 on winstanleys bikes.com ans a couple of decent norcos
