After some issues with my back I have been thinking about a replacing the hardtail with a full sus bike for normal riding. I was thinking new or used with a budget of £1000 - 1500. I’m looking something that will peddle but can be used all over, dropper seat post would be a massive selling point.
I currently have a DH bike so I thinking 140mm travel should be more than enough for normal trail riding.

answers on a post card plz :mrgreen:

Pitch Pro? Trek Fuel EX of some sort. Or get Festa to find you a bargain Lapierre, think he paid £1500?

There's a couple reviews in the latest MBUK - a bit pricier but learning how they rate each bike shows you what is important to consider at least.

That would be really good of you Festa. I may even let you peal the operator out of my hands
