thats the trick though, a £200 bike really doesnt work, they fall to bits its been tested. and then others perfrom better and better. your comparison doesn't really work.0 -

There will be better attributes on a £500 watch then a £50 watch. They both tell the time the same, just better components, durability and in general - shinier bits.
There will be better attributes on a £1000 XC bike then a £400 XC bike. They both go XC, just better components, durability and in general - shinier bits.0 -
for £5.5k whether its a bike or a watch Im gonna need to know it gives good head before I part with that much0

Also bought some tractor tyres for the big bike, in sticky dual ply 2.5" flavour:
