Not the best colour in the world, but parts wise it looks as good as a Voodoo Hoodoo:-
Personally I think that looks fantastic for the money. Reputable shop supplying it as well.
9sp Deore bits, those Suntour forks are OK, branded hydraulic brakes, octalink chain set.
Yep. I'd do it if I were you.
Stuff me. It's even got Mavic rims!
These are a reasonable benchmark to compare against: http://www.decathlon.co.uk/C-359112-mtb-_-mountain-bikes
Personally I'd go for something second hand. There's some great deals in the classifieds.
At that price, for a general MTB capable of surviving proper off road riding, I don't think that can be beaten. A well used Inbred with that spec would sell for that price. You could buy that, a nice used Inbred frame and swap the bit over and sell the frame on if you wanted but to be honest that'll be just as good as it stands.
Have you seen the £470 10sp 105 road bike they are selling? 😯
Nope. The Decathlon bike at the same price isn't as well equipped.

No. As you didn't link to it 8)
The thing is service at decathlon is inexistant.
Not too bad here Juan 🙂
The OPs bike comes from a decent shop though. I've actually been there 🙂
