My daughter has outgrown her Frog 69 bike and I'm looking around for a new bike for her. Needs to be a mountain bike, but it doesn't need to have any form of crap suspension.

max budget is c.£500. Any ideas?

I’m buying a Cube frame from bikediscount.de - at around £80, after seeing a post on here.  Wouldn’t take many existing spares - if any to build up a rigid 26” frame up for £500.  That’s what I’m doing for my 146cm daughter.

I built my daughters bike up for around 500.

Got a new ragley marley frame for 100 then the rest off ebay including some not bad rockshox forks for 70.

We’ve just bought a Specialized Rockhopper ( can’t remember which model)for our daughter which I think is around your budget. Comes with a basic Suntour fork but it works pretty well. Hydraulic disc brakes, too.
