....... What would you buy?
An iPad 3 
Ha ha you titty 🙂 I mean would you purchase a 2nd hand bike or more bling for your current steed(s)
What are your current steeds
i would keep saving 😉
Tapered larger travel forks for the 456 if i had to spend it
some marz 55's of course
I would definitely be buying an 853 Prince Albert and a nice unicycle..
New XT brakes from Rose Bikes for both my Full sus and my Hardtail.
Lighter rear wheel for my full sus (Stans rim on a DT hub probably, already have a front to go on)
New headset bearings for my full sus.
Not very inventive I know, I just have two bikes I absolutely love riding, but both of them could do with a bit of TLC right now...
Solaris frame
£500 for a rigid steel frame (or ally) bike for a bit of light singletrack bashing? Mission impossible?
a tracer vp 😈
i'd be looking on ebay, untill i found one i liked...
No, I thinks it's possible. I recommended this to a bloke at work, he's made up with it.£500 for a rigid steel frame (or ally) bike for a bit of light singletrack bashing? Mission impossible?

edit - lockout Recons.
X7 gears
Hollowtech cranks
Avid Elixir brakes
butted alloy frame, (I assume that's what double thickness means)
I had an 8.2 a few years ago which was similar, loved that bike.
I picked up a Boardman HT Comp for £540 in sale at Halfords, think its gone back up now though 🙄
What are your current steeds
I've got an old Spesh Epic (Brain) and love it but I can't get the Singular Swift out of my head. I want a bike like that but can only afford £500 at the moment and my itch for a second fun bike needs scratching
My last bike cost me £400 about 3 weeks ago and very nice it is too. There's not anything I want for £500 though right now, if I'm honest.
Ah right, so you want a rigid, single speed, steel-is-real MTB. Well, Decathlon may still fulfill your dream.

[/img]80 quid, Decathlon Vitamin. 😉
A pile of new clothes for riding...
I really want a genesis fortitude but not got the funds.
But I have seen that ridge back do something similar but much cheaper.
It's called a dual track and can be had for £499.
Not quite a 29er but almost.
A few bits for my fifty quid bike, some 3/4s a new lid and gloves.
touring bike
New helmet poc/urgematic
A pair of trailrackers
New ceramic bearing jockey wheels
All to be purchased this week .
NOT ANYMORE NEED A NEW HOT WATER CYLINDER BYE BYE HARD EARNED SAVINGS
New xt groupset from Germany, my hardtails drive is on its last legs. Bank the rest.
Revs
A 14/15 inch Kona Lisa 120 of CRC for my missus (she' a short arse)... freaking bargain from CRC. Then I'd upgrade the shitty forks with some 140mm bolt through's (if they don't wreck the geo), tyres and brakes when she got better, the rear shocks not bad for the price (Monarch 3.1).
Pair of King hubs, may have be second hand at that price though.
surly crosscheck F&F, 2nd hand bits to build it up with bits I've got.
Commencal Ramone 3 from Merlin.Looks like fun to me.
I've just bought an R4 light (40% OFF), I plan to buy in the near future a replacement event rain jacket(Almost autumn in NZ) and an Abus Grant X-Plus Lock
Two carbon risers when I can find what I like and then another day down with Jedi. My three bikes are pretty much how I want them but I'm not sure my riding is.
SRAM X0 1x10 with a Straitline chain guide and a dropper post for the full sus.
This is S|ingletrack. You really think anything will stay on topic? 😆
A pile of tubes from Reynolds so I can start building my custom frame
A bit of time off so I can actually ride for a bit 🙁
