Been looking online at next bike purchases at the same time as my brother and I'm pretty shocked with the price of bikes, but when I go on the bird site I can use their online bike builder I can build my dream hardtail for just over 2k.
Is there anywhere else that is that good value and you can customise your bike?
I'm a long time cotic rider but to bukd that spec on a bfe it's almost £1500 cheaper.

I have a Bird full susser and I was looking today at the Zero AM but it looks like they are running the stock out on these and only going to supply 29ers in the future. No small frames for me.
The Ragley Mmmbop is almost the same geo, or the Blue Pig in steel. My view is I'd buy a Mmmbop and as parts wore out upgrade them.

Considering Bird's quality and customer service, I wouldn't mind to wait an extra for them
