Been meaning to get one for a few years now, never done any mountain biking before, i had a specialized camber fsr elite about 6 years ago, i liked it but didnt use it for its purpose just did wheelies.
A few friends have recently got them so i want to try it out.
Budget is £2000 preferably less.
My mate just got a cube 160hpa and it looks really good, nice spec and £1600 in sales.
I have been advised against cubes by someone who works at a bike shop, he said linkage pivots go on them and a few frames have had to be wrote off due to this. He said trek or giant for reliability.
The giants and treks in my budget dont look that great, and i dont really like the colour schemes.
I think id like 27.5 wheelsize, does anyone have experience of 27.5+ tyres? Looks like it could be fun.
So far i really like the look of
Cube 150hpa 27.5+
