    You've posted twice today with the same question, why?

    Where are you as most on here are UK based and won't have the same bikes to recommend that you may have in your area.

    You also seem not to have responded to other questions you have posted.
    Now where's that "Get Out of Crash Free Card"

    The 2 questions where a mistake because i dont know how to delete it. Second why answer if you just want to say something that has no conection with the question. And if i dont know the answer to others questions what is your problem? I thought that this was a "good" comunity but you just prove to me that are some people that can be mean for no reason. See i responded to an "answer".

    I was not being mean, you are the the first person in 14 years on this site to say that to me. I asked two genuine questions, where are you based as your question was in dollars, at least 90% of the people on here use the £. The 1500 dollars could be many countries with a different value, so is meaningless to us.

    The other was about feedback, that was another question, was any of your posts answered, people like to know if they've been helpful.

    Lets try again.

    I am from europe and i thought if i say in dollars more people would notice it. So if im from Europe i can easly order something from Britan. But now with BREXIT maybe not that easy :) .

    Dave, What kind of riding are you intending doing, XC, Enduro, Downhill etc or just pootling around jump parks etc. It all has a bearing on any suggestions we make, pointless having 200mm travel if doing XC for instance. It also helps if you have a couple of target bikes to post links so people can advise accordingly.

    I ride a lot of XC and i like climbing. The target bikes could be(all have the specs the same in Britan like in my country) Canyon Al Sl 8.0, Rose Count solo 4 GX eagle,Cannondale Trail 1,Merida Big nine limited al and Scott scale 950 2019. And when i search for bikes i look a lot if the frame is good(internal cable rounting,smoth welding) and the fork. Because for me is much easier to upgrade the drivetrain,the brakes and the rims,then to buy a really expensive fork.

    Despite Brexit, the trading rules between the EU and the UK will not change until the end of 2020, so you can buy your bike without a problem.

    Might be worth looking at last year's stock at somewhere like pauls cycles. The Canyon looks nice, another option is on the link below. I wouldn't worry about brexit fallout just yet, maybe in a few months time it will be different.

    Thanks a lot for the website.
