[b]age[/b] 26
[b]location[/b] greece
[b]near district[/b] filled with mountains
[b]riding style[/b] a bit of everything which means about 2-3 hour hacks containing uphill sessions and then downhill with some small jumps
[b]terrain[/b] contains everything from rough soil till rocky sessions but mostly it's dry rough soil.

after my introduction which will help into judging which bike fits me best,i'll pass to the bikes:

[b]1.specialized pitch pro 2009[/b]
[url] http://www.specialized.com/bc/SBCBkModel.jsp?sid=09Pitch&eid=2 [/url]
pros-i guess it's spot on for all mountain conditions-great color
cons-i don't like the color and set up that much

[b]2.felt compulsion 4[/b]
[url] http://www.feltracing.com/09-catalog-international/suspension-mountain/compulsion-series/09-compulsion-4.aspx [/url]
pros-great all mountain bike
cons-i don't know much about the firm

[b]3.commencal meta 5.5.3[/b]
[url] [/url]
pros-everybody seems to like it
cons-it seems a bit xc machine

[b]4.kona stinky six[/b]
[url] http://www.konaworld.com/09_stinkysix_en.cfm [/url]
pros-seems totally bombproof and unbreakable-amazing color and setup
cons-con't know if the coil (fox vanilla r) will make the uphill job quite difficult and tiresome-not that i am doing marathon uphills.

any help would be match appreciated.
of course if you would suggest any other bike not listed is highly acceptable.
:thumbsup:

Out of those, I'd go for the Pitch or the Meta. The Pitch pro got 10/10 in this months MBR - said it outperformed bikes costing £1000 more.

I'd also have a look at the La Pierre Zesty/Spicy.
