Looking at a new 29er and the Kna Honza AL / DL seems like a good price. Any real world reviews?

Budget about £1500 if you wanna suggest other 29er hardtails

Cheers

I loved my steel one. Like a tank.

Only trouble I had was getting rear wheels to cash the cheques that the rest of the bike was happy to write. Now that some carbon manufacturers are doing lifetime, abuse it all you like, warranty I'd have one in a shot.

Yes got one from 2016. It’s bloody brilliant. The only downside is the carbon version looks even better.

2013 steel model here and I absolutely love it.

Stuck 140 forks and a -2 headset on it.

Theyre on sale now for about £1500 but is it worth the extra £500 compared to http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/nukeproof-scout-290-race-bike-2018/rp-prod159431
