You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Any news on one? Wanting a rigid 29er for canal path rides with the Mrs and not wanting to spend a fortune. Any other options?
not wanting to spend a fortune.
Vitus on CRC, options of disc or V brake, currently at £240 & £280.
Oh hell. Something else I need to buy.
I'd find it hard to look beyond this:

I have had a Vitus Vee 29er, and currently have the Ramin 1. For the price, and intended use, the Vee should be fine for your needs. Singlespeed/v-brakes so chuff all to maintain.
...although, that £160 more for the Ramin, does get you better wheels, disc brakes, 1x9 altus.
@ OP - I take it if you are looking at the Charge you've seen this too:

OR I could sell you a nice custom built Kona HumuHumuNukuNukuApua'a for £250.00
