Morning

Iam looking to get a new full sus around August/September time, the 2 bikes iam looking at there is £1200 between. Well the more expensive bike is abit to expensive hence my question below.

I have been told that around that time next years bikes will start to come out so the prices of this years bikes will drop.

Anyone have a rough idea how much they drop by.????


Cheers

    Depends on the original price really. In between 1-2k you can get a good 300-400 off, late December maybe even 500

    The less popular the bike the larger the discount.

    Not all bikes get discounted, Santa Cruz rarely get much of a discount. Orange are the same and some others.

    It's too popular to get discounted anyway but I'm sure Santa Cruz have a policy of not allowing shops to discount their bikes.

    Stif Cycles sometimes have decent discounts on SC bikes,was looking at Bronson's and 5010's earlier this year but all seem to have sold now,but Stif are interlinked with the Santa Cruz importers,Bike Scene had some on offer as well and some decent offes on Whyte's as well,as do Granary Cycles they always have bikes on Pinkbike for sale
