Looking into getting a new bike….
I’m after something that will be occasionally raced at enduro events at a very “having a go fun” level rather than elite….
It will be mostly ridden round the peak, so needs to go up and down reasonably, but it will be a second bike to a 29er hard tail, so the downs are the priority, and I want a bike that I can take on uplifts and uk self powered DH. We also take an abroad holiday every year, the last three years have been, Canada and Alps twice.
I have the following demo rides booked…
Orange Alpine
Kona 153
Whyte g-150
Although getting the kona/whyte frame only may be an issue, Id like to get frame only and build it up myself…
I do keep coming back to the NP though, Ive ridden one and got on with it, and the value of the frames on CRC seem unbeatable compared to say, the £1700 Alpine…. is anything going to be worth spending 500-800 more on?
idle musings really…
