Hi,

Just started mounting biking, and i'm about to get a new one.

The choice seems to be confusing me as i don't know to much about it.

I want to keep it around the £900 mark.

The bike i really like the look of is the Commencal Prem Pro, i can get it for £699.

Apparently this is a good deal, and the frame & spec are fairly solid.

Before i get it, i was wondering if anyone knows of a better alternative?

Or if it deed that is a good bike?

Any advice would be great.

Thanks.

    That price is certainly more realistic than the £849 list price as there are better hard tails for £850 than this.

    I'd expand my search to include specialized rockhopper, cube LTD, Whyte X8 Trek 6300 which are all decent bikes in that price bracket.

    Unless you are on a cycle to work voucher I'd suggest looking used. There are few bargains around as its cycle2work voucher and peak summer buying season.
  • Thanks for that, i'll look into those.

    Is their any good sites that sell second hand bikes?
