Best Full Suspension for £750

Munch101

When the summer comes around I'm going to be getting a full suspension bike and as I can get the new Boardman Pro Team 650B FS for £750 cause of staff discount at Halfords, so I was just wondering if there was anything within the region of £750 I can get that might be better or as good as the Boardman?

for the full price it goes for £1500 you cant get anything near as well specced so for £750 no no and er no

ps how many can you get at that price ;-)

He is on about the team I think which sells for 1000. Still good at 750 though

You would struggle to get just a frame that good for less!

In a word - no. How much could you get the Pro for though? Much better suspension and brakes on that, if you can stretch the budget.

You won't get anywhere near that for £750 - it's a great buy.

This Giant Trance is pretty good, but £150 more and not as well specced

I don't think your going to get a better full susser for 750 to be fair mate. Not unless you go 2nd hand anyway.

Closest to it would be the Rockrider 9.1,I had one a couple of years ago,what a bike for the money,when i bought mine i got it for £600,it was running Slx running gear,Tora air forks,think it was the year that the Boardmans hit the shelfs,but for what i paid ,i loved it,had it at some right good trail centres and got plenty of compliments from other riders,little more expensive now though,

^^ this.

there is literally nothing else out there as good at the price you can get, unless you can order a non halfords model and still get the staff discount
