Hi all,
A friend is on the hunt for a new bike to replace his trusty 2010 Specialized enduro.
Key requirements :-
– ~160mm travel
– Long,low,slack
– must have dropper post, 1 x gearing, decent forks/shock, decent brakes.
– Does not want to be making major changes to the spec after purchase, ie buy and forget.
– reliable, good aftersales support (should it be required)
– does not have to be carbon fibre – alu is fine.
Anyone aware of any last years bikes being sold off, or any other bargains.
Budget £2500-£3000 – but if the above can be achieved with less, then great.
I am reluctant to recommend the Canyons or YT’s due to the shocking aftersales and reliability concerns.
edited to add – must be a complete bike, he doesnt want to be messing around building it, and I’m not building it for him.
