I'd take the Voodoo personally.

FYI they only have Medium sizes in stock at Wiggle.

Do you have a link to the GT?

ive said it before to others and il say it again

if you go for the voodoo as they are halfords only, if you join british cycling on the basic 1 year membership costing about £12 you can get 10% off any bike at halfords even stuff thats in the sale. so you would save almost £50 on a voodoo

the money you save will get you a good helmet or camelbak or bike tools

My nephew has the latest GT Avalanche 1.0 and whilst it's a great little bike, it's also a bit on the heavy side. I can't speak for the Voodoo Hoodoo directly but I've seen it get good reviews all over the place.

If I was buying now I'd probably go for the Voodoo.

I'd get the VooDoo.

Drive train is better on the GT but I would say the fork on the hoodoo is better and I would rather have a better fork.
