Is there a hardtail,
as good looking, well made and as reliable as the yeti arc for under £650
any recommendations or excperience of the arc do let me know 🙂

why not get the yeti arc???

my brother has just got one from crc for £620

nothing, just seeing if there’s anything better before i make the crunch and buy one 🙂

on paper at least this looks reasonable… no experience of it though

Depends what for really but for racing and xc stuff they are very very good. They’re very well made and finished off and I liked mine. The tubes on mine were er “soft” as they are thin which saves weight. Classic geometry really but I had more fun on my Pace RC303 being totally honest as the steerings more relaxed so was easier ride downhill – at least for me. If your thinking of getting one look for something second-hand as they can be had for about £400. I bought my complete ARC for £450 a few years back 🙂

It looks awesome in the flesh, I had a little spin on it but its way to small for me to make an educated report.

But tis B E A UITIFULL

I think The Arcs looks win me over!
A complete bike for £450? :O
i might risk buying from jensonusa

Nice colourscheme. Horrible chainstay/seatstay thing that makes me think of prams.

Go 29er for a few more quid (well £350 actually) and get the Big Top !
Lovely job !

Ignore the 29er comment, were not in the states and we ride off road!

LOL 😀

Quite fancying an On One 45g titanium
even built by Van Nicholas, and reviewed as quite possible the best hardtail you can buy! 🙂

Personally I’d go for a ti456.

i think im edging towards that

are you still interested in an arc frame? Might part with my medium – drop me an email if interested.
