    The Dale is the better frame, the GT the better package, if it's a keeper I'd go for the dale, if you'll keep it as standard and then sell it within a year or two go for the GT.
    Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.

    Cheers, but ended up going in a different direction and went for the Charge Cooker Hi 29er. Picked it up the other day and its a great bike so far. Forks aren't the best but they'll do for now as I improve as a rider and upgrade

    Works out I'm payin alot less than the £1000 it was going for

    I actually know him a little and have been to a few of his fights (see YouTube ) and you couldn't wish to meet a nicer bloke. Would not cross him though haha

    Reading his wikipedia page, he's had an amzingly diverse fight career. Judo, boxing and MMA. What a guy! Probably best not to cross him, you're dead right there ha ha

    Cooker is nice, im glad you like it.
    As for cleaning - Way too many variables - do a search in the maintenance and general forums.
