Hello,
I am looking to get a mountain bike for around £400-500,

looked on halfords; I would of fancied the 09 fury at £439 a few days ago but it appears i have missed the deal and its gone back up to £550!

I also like the GT agressor xc2 at £500 also,

I am Worried about buying one of these bikes and then it being £100 cheaper a few days later, does anyone have any advice or intel on future deals? price drops ?

Thanks
