I have a friend that wants to get into cycling but is also saving for a house.

second hand will not be an option as he has a set view of buying new.

I had a phone call ealier and he had found a full sus apollo online for £149.99
I really want to get him away from that and onto a hardtail ideally but what would be the best find for his £200 (maximum) budget??

he is 6 foot and around 14 stones.

any info would be greatly appreciated.

All the best, Mat

I have no connection with them but i think these are great value for money especially the second one - the frame is good enough to be worth upgrading bit/
