Am looking for a s/h hardtail for my son and daughter to use for odd trips when back from Uni - local trails, blues and reds in BPW etc - a used Orange Crush is the obvious option (and I'm a bit of an Orange fan) but am open to suggestions.
So - 130-150mm travel H/T, 27.5 or 29 - available used for >£800 with a reasonable fork - Yari etc
SC Chammy - may have to up budget :/
Budget fixed - could get a Five if I up it much
Bird Zero? I've got one its a great bike, Geometry pretty much the same ASAIK. Plus transferable warranty on the frame
Thanks - I'll have a look
Don't think Ive seen any s/h ones though
A LBS is doing new Ragley Marleys for a grand (not sure about the Recon fork though) any views on them?
Edit that - just seen them for £900 - still interested in any opinions
Sonder Transmitter?
Pp oka for up to 140mm. Far better/nicer frame than a crush.
Seen an oka go locally with ok kit on it for 800
Nukeproof Scout?
What size do you need? A friend has a little used Bird Zero TR in M/L which would probably be in budget.
could get a Five if I up it much
You could get a 26" Five in budget. Better trail centre bike than a hard tail for an occasional rider imo, especially at BPW
Bagstard - sounds about right size wise - amy more info?
Nickjb - sold my old 2009 26 Five for less - may be worth looking for a late 26er
