    If you had £800 to spend on a new full sus 5in trail bike frame, what would you consider

    a hardtail (sorry had to take a shot there)…saracen i think is coming out with a new one…not sure how much it will be tho. it’s slightly over budget but the transition bandit looks like a hoot.

    I just spent £200 more on a Mythic Wildcat. They do some more xc-oriented stuff if the wildcat isn’t for you

    Realcycles have Meta frames for £799. They had Saracen Ariel Xs for about £850 too, but I can’t see them now.

    heckler? £899 so worth a haggle to £800 (1″ more than you wanted great value!!)

    Can you really get a Heckler for £899? That seems like a bargain.

    I’d be looking either for a decent second hand frame or a last years or maybe even the year before model.

    Perhaps even one of these: Devinci Hectik

    That’s a bargain seriously. Yes it’s more bike than you say you want but it’s also way more bike than you’ll get for the money in any other category.

    The new Saracen Ariel is 899. Honestly, it’d be my pick under a grand. Always was close to spot on but the new one looks like it’s there.

    Might be worth a look at my thread from last week – http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/what-5ish-frame-for-a-grand

    Although I ended up with a 2010 Meta off ebay of less than your budget.

    If, by any chance, a brand new medium stumpjumper would be of interest then drop me a line.

    Had a Meta previously and while it was good, I fancy a change. I really like that Hectik-great bargain. Does anyone know much about Chumba VF2’s – they have some good deals around at the mo

    I’d buy the Saracen Ariel 1 for £999, then sell all the bits off it on here/ebay myself. Probably end up with the frame and headset for about £400 I reckon.

    Got to be bargain of the moment! In fact, had I not already got a perfectly good 5″ travel full sus right now, that’s exactly what I’d be doing!

    I heard a rumour Orange were selling off Blood’s at that price (ish). Talk nicely (and quietly) to your Orange dealer for more info I suspect.

    Freeborn only had 1 new hectik frame in stock 2 weeks ago and it was a large though they did have a second hand medium at 599.
