Low budget of around 5-600 . What do you guys recommend? Not a pure dh as I definitely want to ride it back up as well.

Did you mis-type £5600?

Keep an eye on pinkbike. I'd be looking for Covert, Spicy, Enduro, Mega, Pitch etc

No lol it's 5 or 600 🙂 I might have left I too late as I'm off next week. I've scoured pb and eBay but am struggling.

Do you have a bike already? If so maybe just spend it on that with whatever you need doing?

I'd of thought any £500 160mm bike would be pretty long in the tooth now and don't think youll find any of the 'modern' geo bikes for that price that aren't a bag of spanners.

That's what I'm finding to be honest. Maybe I will go frame and forks only and swap some bits over.

You just missed my Mega. Sold for 190.
It was freaking awesome.

Few Oranges on pinkbike in that price bracket, old spesh Enduros come up quite often and I saw an Intense Uzzi Vpx earlier but it was a size small.
