Gonna buy a new Bike tomorrow- anyone got opinions on these

BigG72

Well Ive narrowed it down to 2 Bikes

Both are 2011 Bikes in the End of year Sales

First up is a Specialized Camber 2011 Elite
or Mondraker Factor 2011

Both are the same price
Factor has 10 Speed Camber has 9

I had an Operation a few weeks back so cant Take them off road and a ride around a car park wont tell me much

Never heard much about Factor before- have a Specialized Hardtail which I really like and its done me well

I only saw the Factor today in Evans- looks dreaful on the websire but great in RL

Thanks for looking guys- opinions appreciated

I really like mondrakers. Different, but good. Get the Mondraker. Why be the same as everyone else?

Personally, I'd get the factor. I'm a big fan of them.

And a ride around the carpark is better than no ride at all. It should at least give you an idea of which one will be the better fit.

I'd probably say the Mondraker, dependant on spec. The Camber is a good choice as well though.

Which model factor? If it is the base model then go for the camber. If it is a higher model, see if you can try the both. I personally would go for the camber either way
