Some good deals to be had from Paul's cycles on carbon Giants.
But for me, off the peg and widely available is the Boardman Pro. Nothing has a spec like that for (less than) a grand!
Be worth trying a few out.0 -
I've been looking for a XC bike for the same budget for a good few weeks now. From the ones I've looked at, as supersonic suggests, the Boardman Pro (08 or 09) just cannot be beaten spec wise fo the money, simple as.
Okay, spec isn't everything I hear you say, but there appears to be no compromise with the frame either. Definitely worth a look at and test ride.2010 Specialized Stumpjumper FSR Expert Carbon

Buying power of Halfords. They distibute and sell them, while others are imported in, distributed to dealers, then sold. Less people feeding from the pie ;-)0
