theres actually lots of VERY good off-road riding in bracknell (enter the woods at the lookout - go for a mile or so, theres about 5 miles of singletrack and jumps in there)..
i'd personally go for a 2nd hand bike off the singletrackworld.co.uk forums. bikes drop 50% of their value inside 6 months - so you really get a very good bargin for your money if you want something strong, get something thats sold as a play/jump bike - something with an azonic frame, or a specialized p1/p2 would do nicely.

Cheeky Begger!
You had the solution over here --->http://www.tekforums.co.uk:81/index.php?showtopic=61411 You buy that, and you'll never regret the decision. If your not soaring through the air, you don't need anything as strong as an azonic. Bombing down hills can be done on any bike, and if you don't know what your doing your going to bend something regardless. |
