Halfords have got some good reductions on a lot of their bikes currently. Paulscycles often have some reasonable deals on old models.

Other than that - 2nd hand from the stw classifieds?

Voodoo Hoodoo is 499 at moment at Halfords - even for the 29er which was more like 600. Cheaply nichetastic and good choice if it's mainly a bridlepath type bike for first timer?

Voodoo Hoodoo from Halfords, bought my lad one at Easter and it is well specced for the money and has since just been given 5 stars by MBR.
