right guys Ive been thinking about this for a while and while I love my giant, I want something a little bit nicer. (Dont worry, Im keeping the stonebreaker as well)
long story short I fancy a rigid mountain bike now and whilst it will mostly be used on the road I want something that can handle the local trails as well. Im only going to be looking at around £50 budget but dont mind needing a bit of work. Not too bothered about weight either as my giant isnt exactly lightweight haha.
Would love a mid 90s muirwoods but that isnt happening any time soon haha. Obviously it all depends on what comes up local to me but are there any recommendations should they appear or any 'no-gos'.
The sort of bikes Im finding local are old saracens and that sort of thing. Im not a pro rider, I ride for fun so it doesnt have to be technically perfect, I just want something that will be able to handle the trails.
Just want to know if there is anything around my sort of budget that isnt a pile of rubbish or am I better off saving up and getting something better. Didnt want to spend a fortune as Ive got my marin for proper offroading, just fancy a rigid for when I want to ride something a bit different.
cheers guys and gals
