Hi, first wanted to say thanks for all the anonymous help this forum has given me over the last year i have been seriously into biking.
I am looking to get a new full sus bike having ridden a Kona HT for the last 3 years. I will be getting via the CTS and will be chipping in some of my own money to be able to get a bike I can keep for the next 3 years. So budget of around £1400
I have narrowed it down to 2 bikes, The Specilized Camber Elite or The Trek Fuel Ex 5. I have sat on both and they both feel great and both have great components, but I think the Trek edges it.
As both models are 2011 finding reviews or threads about these bikes and keep changing my mind so I thought id post the question and see what choice you guys would make.
I am open to any other suggestions people may have if they feel another bike may be better value, and before anybody says I am limited with my CTS voucher so cant use Halfords so no Boardman!
I will greatly appreciate any help or guidance you can give me. Cheers.

The Specialized certainly has the better spec. The Fuel to me seems pretty poor for the money. But not always about that. If you have tested it, and like it the most, it is the one for you.0
