Hi all
As the title states I'm relatively new to pedel pushing, have done motocross and for the last 3 years greenlaning. Have now got the manual biking bug and am looking to buy my first seroius bike.
I currently have the much slated Apollo fs 26 se, which has been great as a starter bike, but has now served its purpose.
Not really too sure on which bike to go for ( hard tail or full sus. ), I have a budget of £0 - £500 and would really like some pointers on which type of bike to go for and also what benefits I would have over a hard tail V. full sus.
I know its my first post and seem to asking alot but any advice would be gratefully recieved.
Cheers

i have done Motocross as well and would recommend full suss as i like to get air and love the descent side of mountain biking ,but really depends on what you are going to use the bike for !0

i wouldn't recommend getting a fs with a budget of £500! i had the same budget but ended getting a longer travel XC bike. what are you planning using it for?Genesis Core 200

Have a look at our What Bike threads in the Buying section - a good starting place for you.0
