Hi I'm looking to buy a hardtail, not sure on my budget but I've got a list of bikes I'm intrested in they are probably the very top end of what I want to spend.

Genesis core 26.3 or 26.4
Khs alite 2000sl
Whyte 901
Ragley piglet x7
Commencal ramones crmo
Saracen mantra expert or elite
Saracen Zen x
Lapierre raid 700
Voodoo wanga

So which of these bikes would be the best, I know most people will prob say the voodoo but I'm put off that one for some reason but I hope you guys can help me make my mind up

    You think you'll get different answers here than your other thread? Just too confusing.

    Voodoo is the best spec on paper,but my personal preference would be towards the Whyte or Genesis Core.

    So ranging form £800-£1500 -LOL

    For £1500, an on-one carbon 456 (whippet or otherwise depending on preferance), for £800 the Wanga, they would be my choices for my riding style and (lack of) ability and where I ride - you......
