hi,

a friend of mine is looking for a full suspension trail/am-esque bike for 5-6hr rides. He's 2 metres tall and weighs 110kg. He's very fit and practically muscle (swoon..). Has a budget of say 1500GBP which removes the boutique brands from the pack.

What bikes should i be recommending to him?

thanks Ton. Any ideas about the FS bikes? I can't find any bikes to suit him at his budget.
