The first one
and this one
Getting a bike to commute on (weather permitting), lucky for me the commute involves a bit of cannel toe path and small bit of road and a 5 mile cross country ride across a pretty rocking section, soft moors and a nice 2 mile down hill section. I also need to consider weekends in Gisburn and Dolby forests.
I don’t have masses of cash and I will be using the cycle to work scheme at Halfords but still want to keep costs down as much as possible.Up grate parts as and when.
I am new to MTB and got my first bike from Halfords Carrera Vulcan in Febuary and have changed a few things on bike after riding it to death on the commute and at Gisburn. A new FSA Headsett, BB, x9 shifters, X7 mechs, Rockshox Tora and a set of conti verticals. All the original bits I broke with the exception of the 3 speed changer.
Need some help with the hard tail vs. full sus on these two bikes as well? A now have a half decent hard tail so leaning towards the full sus at the moment.
So what do you think of these? Pros and cons
Thanks
Brian.
