I am currently in the market for a full sus frame. I currently have a 456 built up with half decent bits – Pike’s, Hope Hoops etc and I can’t really decide wether to stick with 26″ 0 if so which frame is the best out there for trail riding under £800? OR…
Do I bite the bullet and go for something in 27.5 and replace all the most expensive bits of my old bike like wheels and forks
OR – Do I sneak a new bike past my wife…..?
Either way my budget is around £1500 maybe a touch more 😉
If I go 26 I could spend more on a frame and new bits like a Reverb and use most of the bits off my old build.
So far I like the look of the Codine 29, El Guapo, Radon Slide (getting well above budget but so much bike for the money) and the Canyon Nerve AL – but are no large demos available for any of them so its a bit of a buy and hope….
So what do I do folks? HELP!
