Hi there, been charged with finding a bike for my father in law, he's quit the fags and wants to spend the money saved on a new MTB.

So, looking for a 15" frame, not too long in the top-tube, £3-400.

Anybody noticed any bargains about? Looked on Pauls Cycles and nothing jumped out at me, so suggestions welcomed.

Prize* for winning entry.

Cheers,

Alex

*prize may not exist.

Nobody cares? C'mon you lot, there's more to it than £2,000 machines.

Tis pretty hard to find much new at that price these days, might be better looking at second hand.

Up the budget and get this in 16"?
