[b]UMF HARDY 4[/b]

I've had an Merida couple of years ago, and it had good strong frame. I didn't tested a Scott ? How it is ? Is Scott better ?

Thanks.

Some better components on the Hardy, at least its got Alivio vs Acera but both got XCM forks which are frankly rubbish.

Probably the scott, but neither seem ideal.

Do you have a decathlon near you or even online decathlon. The subsim is pretty cheap and looks more suited.

If it were me, I'd probably get an Octane One Zircus frame - £160 - bang on a 'Zocchi DJ fork and build it up from there using bargain but good bits, 1x9 ditch the front mech. Cost a more but would be your own choices. But then I'm a 61 year old fat bloke so what do I know? 🙂

That SUBSIN looks ok, but I think the frames from Scott and Hardy are more durable.
