Hi guys, just getting into MTB and have just sold my Boardman as I feel it was a little bit too XC orientated and want something a little more robust. Im smack in the middle of Afan Argoed and Brechfa and will be riding these most of the time and some xc strolls with the wife.
I'm going to spend up to £1000 and whittled it down to these 3: 2011 whyte 901 for £800, a Genesis core 50 for £910 or a second hand Giant X4 trance full suspension for around £900.
I will be riding predominantly red routes and wondering if I really need a full suss. I'm looking for something that's going to last, and keep me smiling as I get itchy feet and always looking for something better. Typical bloke really!!

Thanks for any advice
