i'am looking into buying a new hardtail i have a budget of around £800 there is a few bikes that i like but its been over 10 years since my last so i guess their as been lots of changes. riding wise will be getting back into trails and losing a bit of weight. these are some i have looked athttps://winstanleysbikes.co.uk/bikes/mountain-bikes/hardtail-mtb-bikes/kona-cinder-cone-27-5-inch-2018-bike

Well done on managing to get three links corrupted! (none have the : between the https and the //).
The fork on the Whyte and Marin are behind that on the Kona and that alone rules them out for me.
None is as good as the cheaper Voodoo Bizango from Halfords though.

first post and i make a balls up of it, excuse is i've a house full of puppies so lack of sleep. Any way thanks for the advice i have been looking at the bizango and have read some reviews of it and with it being £150 cheaper i might go and have a look for myself. cheers

To save you asking the same questions, this thread helps explain why a Bizango is a good option at that price point:
