A friend has asked me what bike they should get and though i'm familiar with building up the odd bike and ride a fair bit, i have no idea what 'off the shelf mtb' is good value/ride
Its a strict £300 budget, i've already recommended hardtail at this budget and he would most likley need to try before he buys.
Thanks

Yes unless it fits him, only avalible in small or large, unless it can be found anywhere else for that price.
