    This arrived today. A 2007 Pace 303. Its a step away from the GTs clean ride but its fucking great going down stairs.

    TBH I would have a look on the likes of ChainReactionCycles, Leisure Lakes, Wiggle, JEJames and check the sale hardtails.

    Call me old fashioned but it seems a bit excessive purchasing a bicycle just to go down the stairs? Do you live in a block of flats or something?

    Always been a big fan of the rocky Mountains personally. Have a looksee at them - This looks a peach.

    Not well up on Full Sus tbh but the new GTs look fucking awesome but not sure on availability yet.



    or if you fancy a natty hardtail then have a look at this painted carbon beauty.

    Although the GT Fury is high up on my MTB Wank list, and has been for a while, I am currently nursing a semi for the Nicolai offerings:



    Trek have great reviews by the way.

    If I had topick an off the peg all rounder the I`d prob go for something like a La Pierre Zesty, then if you have £4500 for a bike you can take your pick!!

    I`ve always ached to own a Yeti as well...great bikes:


    I currently have a Spesh Rockhopper...in comparison, shite!!

    Oh, Nice bike Bert
