Love my malt 4 with Reba 100mm forks. You could up-spec some parts for that money too.

1100 doesnt really restrict you much.

so you could choose a bike from any company really.

Very happy with my Giant XtC, 1100 will get you a rather swish one i reckon.

Stick with Merlin. Apart from some sale bikes you will get the most bang* for your buck. Also they have consistent specs, so no downgrading on hidden parts.

Did no one notice I threw and £1800 bike in there, its certainly loads more bike than any other sugestions.... sadly the discount price is £1500 but still a hell of a lot of bike..
