After a 12 months break from cycling I have decided id like to purchase myself a new bicycle.. I'd like a full suss, up to 140mm, I'd like to stick to 26" wheels as I'm a short arse and big wheels look daft on small bikes. Will mainly be shredding the gnar and being supremely awesome at trail centres and some natural stuff up in that there Scotland.
Hoping to get some longer days in the saddle so ideally nothing to heavy. Not a huge factor in the purchase though.
Short list so far is:

Anybody got any opinions or other suggestions?
Many thanks as always

Aren't they rather pricey?
