Howdy!

I'm looking for a HT XC bike that enables me to ride comfortably upright (no, not like a devout Jehovah's Witness), and doesn't have me crouched over the bars racer style.

The position doesn't have to be too vertical, but I don't want to steer the bars with me finger tips!

Price range is a whooping £500.

Any advice?
