Hi,
I have now got my choice down to the following bikes, I would love some feed back on what you guys think of them.

Orange Alpine 160RS, full build with most available options.

Specialized Enduro Expert.

Mondraker Dune RR.

Scott LT 710.

I have spent some time on the Mondraker Dune before and had a go on the Specialized but not tried the others.

    None of them. Get a Transition Patrol instead.

    Thanks, but the insurance company has instructed Wheelies and they do not have Transistion bikes. I would have had a Santa Cruz Bronson if I could just take my money to another shop.

    I would probably have the Specialized out of that lot. Bit of a tank but the best of the lot.
    How about a Stumpjumper evo? In 90% of uk riding its better than any of the bikes listed and you have to be riding 'kim hard to want a bigger bike than that. The 29er model is really brilliant as well but not for everyone.
