Hello to all.
I have never owned a bike over £200 and now feel it is time to purchase my first serious rig. Even though I know nothing about basic bicycle maintenance, I have read MBUK for a while and feel I know a bit about components. So I have narrowed it down to these two bikes (btw I have £1400 to spend) as they have been given good reviews. However, I still cant make a decision. I will ride singletrack, probably clocking a few miles, i like to drop off things (i.e rocks etc) and like to hit jumps. I will mainly be going to Glentress to ride and want a bike capable of all that place has to offer (freeride, jumps, drops, singletrack and more). Maybe my riding preferences are to wide and need narrowed but thats what I am keeping in mind when i decide (with your help I hope !).
Anyways, I've wrote enough so looking foward to hearing your thoughts!
P.S. If you know of any other bikes that would suit me let me know.
ThankYouVeryMuch
