Hi folks,
I've been recommended to come here and ask about spending some money on a dirt machine, so here's my conundrum;
I've got an as yet hypothetical $2000 to spend on a bike. I'm after an all-round machine for a pretty average weekend warrior sort of bloke. I'm aware of the shed loads of very nice second hand machines on here, but, for a bit of DH, a bit of dirt jumping and a bit of tooling around on the street, what's a good buy for two grand?
The local shop (Spearman's for those who know it) has said that they'd be happy to get something outside their normal range in for me (Giant, Specialized, Avanti and Cannondale). They also have second hand stock for me to peruse, so there may be a wildcard.
Thanks for you input,
Peter
