At that sort of money I'm half tempted. I want another hardtail and my full susser is currently in the shop being repaired after an "incident"

I bought similar last year actually, a 2005 rockhopper that had done two short mileage trips and was immaculate.
Loved that bike, highly recommended by me!!

Feel free to email me smile

I'd rather avoid turning this into my very own 'for sale' thread of course, that's whey I'm asking people to email me

For the same budget you can get a new years resolution bike from eBay that probably cost three times as much when new.

How about a Gary Fisher W-hooo for £200?

Barely used due to me being a lazy swine and only used along one flat cyclepath. Very, very good condition.

Dunno how much it's worth but cost around £800 new frown

p.s. I've still got a belly, that's how little it's been used
Just to close the thread and to let you know it was this in the end...great deal many thanks Andrew
