    Up to you to choose wheel size .......I am not going there

    Marginally better spec on the 26" with Deore kit. As above, wheel size is your choice but it opens a big can of worms around these parts. Have a look through the buying advice forum, there is plenty of bikes around your budget with better specs. Carrera, Rockrider etc etc

    How many time are we going to see the same thread, and how many times are you going to ignore the fact the Rockrider is a better spec and that looks really shouldn't play a part at this budget?

    If you have to get a bike for the looks, the 26 does have a very marginally better spec.

    Whats your problem Cookeh ?

    I have already ordered my bike , the question was for someone else.
    I have not ignored that the Rockrider is a better spec

    2 things if your not happy with the question ignore it and dont waste time replying
    The question I asked compairing those 2 bikes has not been asked before.
    Grumpy git.

    Regardless of whom its for, the answer is the same. The Rockrider is the best bike at this budget, as was established in all of your other threads. The two bikes you linked above are analogous to the CUBES you linked in two earlier threads, and thus the question has indeed been asked before and answered numerous times.

    I'm not "grumpy", I just cannot fathom as to why you insist on asking the same question repeatedly and the same question that's been answered in your own threads and perhaps a dozen others in the past fortnight. I'm even more baffled by the fact you expect the answer to change each time...

    Dont bother answering my posts unless you have anything positive to say.
    Not looking for your criticism.
    Just dont waste your time.
