New Bike.. £650-£750 budget

mp3duck

Hey,

I am getting a new bike though Ride2Work. I have got an £850 voucher, which I want to get bike lights and lock.

I have to get it at evans cycles.

I am thinking about getting a Pinnacle Evolution 1.0
http://www.evanscycles.com/products/pin ... e-ec000923

I have one reserved, and it looks pretty well specked for the money.
I am however not sure on the brand reliability with Pinnacle.

Other possibles:

Specialized Rockhopper Comp Disc 2009

Genesis Core 30 2009

Felt Q820 2009

Maybe over budget, but ... Scott Scale 60 2009
http://www.evanscycles.com/products/sco ... e-ec016238

Otherwise, canI get some recommendations on alternatives?

Cheers
Danny

hi, iv got he genesis core 30, im really happy with it, its a good spec all shimano with good weels and tires for the money and its light.
good adjustment in the forks
it rides really good on single track trials, very responsive in corners easy to thro around and its good climber to.
genesis are under rated,
a really good bike for the money.

I`d go for the Genesis or the Rockhopper.
