Hi all.
Some advice if you please, my little Sis and I are looking to buy our old chap a hardtail as a pressie.
He's just been given the ok to start riding again after a total Achilles rupture
He has an old mtb he built up when Noah built the arc
We have a budget of around £700 and we know he's quite keen on either a Cannondale or a Cube.
Anyone know of any stunning 09 deals atm ?
Any thought's guy's,he's a bit of a stump at around 5'-7"
Mucho Thankio.

Not really, but it's nicer
Took him up to the Bike Show at Earle's Court on Friday, and he's been muttering on about the Cube's ever since.
I know very little about them as I've always ridden Spesh, and the only HT he likes are the Carbon Stumpy's....and there's no chance of us buying one of those for him!!!!0 -
That cube looks fairly good, nice fork, and decent mechs. Formula Oro brakes meant to be pretty good, only the crankset seems to be a compromise but it's still good hardy stuff. Nice paintjob too if you like the stealth look, it's almost invisible.0
