My employer has just introduced cycle to work scheme so it would be rude not to take advantage of it. Looking at £800 for a hardtail then £200 clothing (all my tops seem to have shrunk 😥 ). Hardtail needs 120mm or above fork and be more all mountain than XC. What do you suggest?
Forget the clothing and jump on an [b][url= http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/CBOO456TR/456-trail ]On One 456 Trail[/url][/b]? You seriously won't go wrong with it and it's crazy value at that price (£999). Plus they're on the [url= http://www.on-one.co.uk/cycle-scheme ]cycle scheme[/url] too...
needs 120mm
😀. What do you suggest?
Original inbred?
Something from genesis - I like the look of em
Takes a punt on a Focus mtb. Nice roadbikes...
Look at one of the big manufacturers they'll all probably have something

I think the Inbred's more for 100mm (though of course it [url= http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/FROOIN/on-one-inbred-frame ]will take more[/url]). If the OP's after
then the 456 will do nicely - or as you say a Genesis would be good bang for buck too.120mm or above fork
Go look at the Merlin website. Something like the Malt 4 should do you, or maybe a Rock Lobster.

Agree with forgetting the clothing. You are better spending on a good bike. The Felt is full XT groupset but only 19.5" frames left.
Both are only 100mm travel though

il do this at £800 for you....
Would of suggested a Genesis but they didnt seem the bargain they were when I last looked, certainly not the SS IO anyway. A 120mm fork works well on an Inbred, adjustable one ideally. If I had the option I'd go for an Inbred, I love mine.
the GT bikes in halfords are incredible value for money - extra 20% off at the moment. get one, ride it for a bit, if you don't get on with the frame just drop all the bits onto a 456.
genesis core 30? Mate Did exactly what your doing, wont weight more than a baby elephant like the on one either 😉
