Another MTB ? and opinions required.
Ukcyclestore.com Specialized FSRxc
I've decided to buy a bike in the cycle to work offer at work (of all places) and was looking at a GT i drive 5 4.0. These have sold out and ive been offered the above bike as an alternative, what do you think. I've got a voucher fpr £900 so if anyone can suggest a full sus MTB for that price all are welcome.
TIA
Andy.

Just ordered a Stumpjumper Hardtail (and a Globe IG8) through the scheme.
Now have to wait two WEEKS for the vouchers to come back - Arrrghh!
We run our own Ltd company so that should make it easier.
MBR has a test of £800 full sus bikes this month - worth a look but reckon your choice is a good one.

Andy - £1199 for the Stumpy (normal price) and £500 for the Globe (with some extras like rack and mudguards) from Clive Mitchell cycles in Truro.
Could have waited until October but our bikes are starting to fall to bits!
Obviously we end up getting them pretty much half price in the end!

Will do! Will replace my current full rigid steel Stumpy (with a million upgrades) that has been superb - Now worthless so going to be a spare bike at our inlaws place.

Cool. It's wqorth the £1199. At the £1500 point, it seems a tough decision between HT and full susser for £1500 (although I'm not buying at the mo) !
