Alternative to Grand Canyon AL 29er

alesupper

I was all set to buy myself a nice shiny new Grand Canyon AL 9.9 29er only to be informed that they had sold otr and they won't be making any more until next year. Great business plan that hey! So I've been looking around for an alternative that offers a similar bike for the money, but I am struggling. My second favorite so far is a Cube but I wondered if there is owt else out that that can get close to the Canyon?

Pretty much every big manufacturer has a bike in this catagory now but you'll be very, very hard pressed to find one that nears the value/level of kit for the price of the canyon without looking at sales or second hand - that is their main appeal and what makes a wait and distant support worth while.

General rule of thumb is to pick the one with the best frame/ride and upgrade any duff part choices at a later time/as funds allow.

Happy shopping!
