Hey guys, I keep going round in circles, I'd greatly appreciate a bit of input to help me decide what to do.
I'll be doing regular XC/trail riding, and some occasional small DH stuff, and I'm stuck between a used Boardman Pro (£675), or a new 2013 Jamis Nemesis 650b (£950). Full spec lists below if you want to check them out:

The Boardman looks good, and has solid reviews across the board, but it is used so could possibly have faults/no warranty etc.
The Jamis has 650B (27.5") wheels, which are apparently a great compromise between 26 and 29er. However it is a relatively new bike and there aren't as many good reviews out there, so would be more of a risk. Plus it's £275 more.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
