My mate’s looking for one but he’s only 5’6″ so looking for a small. I said about a Niner but my local shop cannot get a small in for 5 weeks and he’s impatient.

What other full bikes can we look at for £2k or thereabouts?

I was under the impression that 29ers weren’t much cop for those of smaller stature? Toe overlap or something?

We could build a Chumba HX2 for 2K. Email me at info@progressive-bikes.co.uk for a full spec.
