I know On-One do it and I've told my pal but he wants a choice, soooooooooo, where else can he get a long travel hardtail on C2W? 110-140mm travel ideally. Any ideas welcomed. Ta.
you're going to cop some stick I suspect...
tricky commute? or lucky...
Cotic Soul or BFe
Genesis do some, Kona do the Five-O, Commencal have the Ramones and Marin have a few as well.

Bring it on. I've got 2 summer seasons but I work from home and don't do C2W! I'm asking the question because it was asked of me and I can't think of a bike that you could get from say halfords that would fit the bill. I've seen Kona Stinkys bought on C2W so a long travel HT isn't going to raise any eyebrows particularly amongst them's what don't know nuffink about bikes. Ta for suggestions so far.
I think leisure lakes have done a special crush with orange to suit the c2s budget.
My GT aggressor xcr came with Marzocchi 44's which have 140mm of travel on them . It retails at 749.99.
Mate got a Kona 5-0 though HF on CTW
It's a tank
Head for the Hills have done a few Prince Alberts/Alpines on C2W.
Charlie the Bike Monger is flexible.
That's all I'll say. 😉

And the last time I looked a Long-travel HT was a bike.
What about a Genesis ?
Genesis altittude 10 from Evans?
You could commute on it and ride it off road as well....
This year it gets rack/mud guard mounts

Thanks for all the suggestions folks. Like I say, it's not for me. It's for a pal. He has decided on a carbon 456 with SLX and Magura Thors. Sounds nice but dunno if I would go for carbon.
