Looking at getting a 160mm since I’ve sold my DH bike and hoping to go to the alps this summer with a bud.
I’ve got some 26er wheels left from when I turned my BFe into a Solaris, so I was thinking of buying a frame, fork and some other bits second hand, then buying the remainder brand new and and doing a build.
However, I’ve been pricing it up and don’t believe that its going to be very cost effective. I’ve seen the Rose Uncle Jimbo’s for <2K and also live near Bath so would hopefully be able to test ride. I’m imagining that its going to end up being ~£1200 to go for a 26 mix or £1800 for a brand new bike?
Essentially WWSTWD?
