I'm thinking of getting the randon black sin 8.0. Anybody else own one or a randon bike?

Never heard of Randon. Sounds like a company that would make sex toys, not bikes. Are you sure you don't mean Radon?

Bought my mrs a womens Radon ZR 5.0, spec for the money compared to anything else is way better, came in at £380ish with delivery and for that you get 9 speed SLX, 650b wheels, shimano altus hydraulic discs and tapered steerer, plus full raceface finishing kit and decent bits. SR Suntour fork is a bit of a let down but easily upgraded, will be getting a decent air fork on there eventually anyway. The same money would get you a 26" hardtail in the uk with a load of mega low end shimano bits you've never heard of, so it's a bargain in my eyes.

I'm currently waiting delivery of a Radon Slide, it should be delivered early this week. Great spec for the money.

I've had a Radon Slide 29er 9.0 for a month. Brilliant bike, unbeatable spec!

Radon is just one of the big German online shops house brand isn’t it? so like buying Nukeproof or Vitus off CRC.

My slide 8.0 turned up on Monday. Great looking bike. Took just over a week to get here from the point of ordering.
Bike discount were fine to deal with. Came in the world's biggest bike box!
Literally had an hour on it so can't give an opinion on the ride quality. Components are great though.

It's their house-brand, so no other option. Not had a bike from them, but plenty of other stuff and no problems. Radon are very popular here on the continent.

Great service as always from Bike Discount Centre. And to raise funds you could always sell your house and live in the bike box. 🙂

I've have a Slide 27.5 9HD since October, good service and excellent spec, perhaps a little heavy but thats enduro for you.

Things to remember :-
you pay the price it says on the website, vat etc is included
there is a london dealer you can collect from or take it to for repair
