OK, custom built to order but at £1050 for a HT frame are they worth it? I ride a Chameleon, not much different surely?

Not sure if they're 'worth it' but still want one.

Problem is as soon as I talk myself into it, I start looking at all the other £500 do-it-all hardtails that make me question the extra £500 spend and I'm back to where I started.....without one.

They are harsh and for the cash you could buy titanium or a pretty nice steel frame.

If £1050 isn't much money to you then buy it.

If you have to scrimp to afford it then its not worth it really. Wont ride any better than the £500 hardtails as you say, infact it may even ride worse.

Spend the £500 saved on a trip to the Alps or something.

Experiences are worth infinitely more than material goods

I couldn't agree more. I spent many years gaining experiences and now all I have time to do is spend money on expensive toys.
