considering buying a fuji tahoe pro..i've not ridden for about a year now and lost touch with whats good and whats not so good at the moment. i like the look of the bike as it seems pretty stricking, the comonents seem to be of a decent spec although for a £1000 bike i would of expected a little better. In fairness the price has been dropped to £800 at evans.
For this price i feel it represents good value and was just wondering if anyone had any sort of opinion on this bike...whether it be good, or bad.

many thanks!

    The spec seems reasonable for the cash - certainly seen worse. Fork is a decent piece of kit.
