Good price, good spec - will be a nice starter ride. Try and see if they have a size guide to check what size you need. Also be aware it has 29" wheels, the bikes you may have been riding before were most likely 26" so bike may take a bit of getting used to.

This is the other bike I've been considering, like said it's a decent bike spec wise for the money.... I just can seem to decide between this or a Canyon Yellowstone AL.... Life's hard at times hahaha!!

I would go for the Radon ZR team 7.0. Great value and better than the Canyon you've listed.
