    will have about £350-£400 to spend
    If i get a 456 that leaves £200 for front mech,seatpost,clamp,headset
    that might be the better option!

    both great. But the Cotic is the better 'all rounder'

    Chumba HX1 – sorry no photos. Get in touch with Si at Progressive Bikes and he'll sort you out.

    Do i win a fashionably unfashionable prize for having just sold my 456 to buy a stupidly stiff aluminium race frame despite being a lardy who has no intention of racing it?

    BMC elite, rebas, xt, crossmax's, carbon bits. 6lb lighter than the 456 it replaced. Wont be as easy going downhill, but 80% ish of my riding seems to be uphill anyway. If it breaks me in half, i can flog the frame, buy an inbred and still make a profit. – Worth a go for a few months i think.

    Owned P7, Inbred, Soul.

    All are great and hard to fault but the most fun = Soul.

    Rode / owned a few different hardtails. Always seem to gravitate back to my Coyote Dual. It's currently undergoing a bit of a refurb at the moment but will be back on the trails soon.
