Genesis Altitude 20 - anyone got one

ladeside09

I'm looking at buying a new Genesis Altitude 20 (09) model for £1k - rrp £1499 - discounted as new 2011 models are coming soon

has anyone got one?
what do you make of it, how does it handle, any good / bad points etc
thanks in advance

I've ridden my mates Altitude 10 - seems pretty good quality, rides nicely for a hardtail, had no bad points about it really (except it didnt fit me but he is 6 inches taller).

The only downside we had was that his seatpost seems to a be a fraction too narrow and slips - the LBS is getting a new one in for him under warranty so its not a big issue.

I think you'll find the 2010 Altitude 20 rrp is £1499, the '09 20 was £1099, so this is actually over priced.

thanks lads for your help and sorry just to clarify it is the 2010 model not the 09 one as I stated - my mistake

so do you reckon this is a good deal then and anyone else got one
cheers

Especially if you can by it under the C2W scheme.
