Hi all,
I am in search of a new bike, I currently have a 2012 Giant Reign 1 and it has been fantastic - however I have found my riding style has changed over the past couple of years and feel that a XC/Trail bike would be more suitable for my style of riding.
Basically I was hoping I could get your opinions/suggestions.
I am looking to spend $3k maximum and prefer:
- shimano running gear (especially brakes)
- 120mm suspension
- internal cabling.
- 650b wheels
So far in my price range I have found a Giant Anthem SX and a Merida One-twenty 7.500 - I like quite a lot, however was curious as to whether there was something else I should be looking at.
EDIT: local dealers stock norco, lapierre, merida, gt, scott and specialised
Cheers everyone.
