1) the build shown in the pics is SC's more flashy one. The 'build from $xxx' statemet at the bottom will refer to the 'budget' deore/float r shock/recon fork build.

2) Generally with SC the cost in dollars over there is not far off or even the same as the cost in pounds over here.

So a bit over 2k for a relatively ok spec fs 29er. Sounds reasonable value for what is reported to be a great bike, but not outrageously bargainiferous.

I realised the bike pic wasn't the spec at the basic price..

I was more looking at the cost of the frame alone compared to cost of complete bike... when you look at it like that its a bit of a deal ๐Ÿ™‚

why would anyone buy frame only at those prices?
