Hi guys. Just signed up here as it seems to be a informative forum.
I have rode before but my last bike was probably 4 years ago. I just didn't have the time to ride hopefully that has changed now. My last bike was a Carrera Banshee xxx which from what I can remember was a brilliant bike. The only thing I can remember was it was a little on the heavy side. Took knocks all day long though. I am after something similar in respect to quality just weight down if possible. I suppose a little more "all round" bike.
I have been looking at the Boardman Fs pro/team 650b and am considering them. My only concerns are will these bike put up with the punishment that the Banshee did if not what would be the weak points. Is the travel a bit short for a all rounder? And is this a lighter bike.
