I reckon those Btwin Rockrider mountain bikes are on par with the Boardmans for the same money. They are very nice in the flesh (like the Boardmans) and they have some good reviews!

IIRC The Btwin  came out top on a Gadget show test too. :happy2:

From what I've seen in Decathlon and Halfords I'd be different and get the Rockrider.



Have u thought about spending £500 on a 2nd hand bike?

You could get a beaut  :wink:




Thanks Monte for the advice mate. Yeah its a lot of bike for the money and the reviews are good! Whats your advice on second hand? What could I get for my budget? Cheers bud!

Thanks everyone else for all the comments!
