Hey ya'll - this is my first post, so please go easy on me if I make a rookie mistake by posting this in the wrong section or if this is simply a dumb question.
I've decided to move up from my hardtail 2009 Yukon into something a bit more comfortable with full suspension and at the moment I'm a little bit in love with the Giant Trance X1. I've had a bit of a look around and so far have been able to find the 2011 model for $3,600 at one of my local bike shops along with a firm "we won't drop it any lower" from the sales rep.
I'm going to go around to a few more bike shops and try to get them to beat it, but before I do I'd just like to find out if anyone has been able to find or buy the bike cheaper than that anywhere in Australia? I realise that $3,600 is already about $400 off RRP so I don't expect to be able to get it much cheaper, but every dollar counts!
