i am trying to decide which of these is best. The spec is similar but the specialized is heavier and more expensive, so i was wondering if the specialized is better in any way.
I was also wondering if they would be strong enough - i wouldn't be doing anything drops bigger than 4 ft, and no big jumps - i'd just being doing trail centres and bridleways etc. If they wouldn't be strong enough, what would be a good alternative? Pitch pro? gt idrive 6 elite?

Also has anyone got any experience of these bikes?
Thanks

The GT Idrive is built for harder riding. The others should be ok with well landed drops (into transitions!).0

Thanks SS
Which would be best though?0 -
You need to test them to find out that. They are all good value bikes with no real short comings.
The Halfords stuff is better vakue on paper though,
The Boardman leads the best buy for FS at that price in WMB.0 -
ok thanks again. Unfortunately it'll be a couple of years until i have the money, unless i get a paper round0
