I am looking for an xc bike either the scott spark 30 2009 or the giant anthem x2 2010 model both are £1750 but which one is the best please help. I have tested the anthem x2 and thought it was very quick but have not tried a scott spark. Type of riding is thetford cross country with a little bit of racing.

the x2 is £2000 i thought not £1750 a1t that price your looking at the anthem x3
the spark is lighter but the rear suspension is not as supple as the RP2 on the anthem
The spark=25lbs
the anthem x3=26.9lbs
my personal favourite is the anthem(i did a demo day on both of them)mongoose amasa elite 08

Try the spark you'll love it!!! but i am biased.
seriously though, spending that amount of money you need to test both bikes.

I had an offer from a friend a new anthem x2 for £1750 still not decided which to go for as the scott spark 30 seems more of a race machine and upgradable which is what I am after as I have a giant reign 0 for which I take to wales but is not quick enough for thetford Looking for the best short travel full suss with a budget up to 2.5k max any ideas0

Try a Spark and see which you prefer. Thats the only thing you can sensibly do.0
