[Closed] What hardtail should my mate get for ~£1,000?

My lapierre pro race 300 for 500 quid and spend the rest on beet

You'll get an awful lot of beet for £500

Where will he/you ride?

what sort of riding does he want to do? XC Bridleway bashing? Messing around in the woods? Bit of both?

Once he's got through his beet 😉 he'll probably be doing XC. He doesn't want to do proper downhill. He's a Gloucester boy but will probably ride with me a fair bit around Cheltenham. Forest of Dean is close. Cwmcarn is not far and Afan is doable in a day.

Cheers!
Matt.

get a move on tho

Good bike that!

That does look like an awesome bike.

I had a 456Carbon that i built up with a Rev RL. Worked great!!

Nice one all! That looks like a real beauty and cracking value!!!!

Thanks!

Reading the OP I was going to say an Inbred / sektor forked full build. They were about 7-800 notes. But that X9 456 is very good value. The Deore one is too.

What wheel size?
