    Plenty of bikes this year that cost more than last and are a lower specification did you mean?

    None anyway, I buy parts not bikes, much cheaper, the only parts now left on my bike from when it was first built are the headset and rear mech hanger!
    Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.

    What they said ^^^^

    I usually buy a frame and end up changing most of the parts over 3-4 years, have had a new frame for each of the last two years so I think I'm due a steady year :lol:

    Having said that CRC sales and the likely hood of going back to uni accommodation next year (and the rent-free summer that goes with it!) could mean a few nice changes over the summer :)

    Presumably trying to drum up business for Bike Leasing Company, so for that reason, mind your own business.

    If someone wants to buy a kidney (I have 3) then it would be a Norco A-Line or something similar.
    Other than that I may upgrade my Clockwork or have a go at building a dirt jump/beginners downhill bike from scratch.
