Hiya,

I've not been into bikes for a good 15 or so years now but am just toying with the idea of treating myself again. I've always fancied a Kona and have a budget of up to £500. I'm looking for a hardtail trail bike and in particular the Cinder Cone and Fire Mountain Deluxe have caught my eye. The Fire Mountain Deluxe is around £400 and the Cinder Cone around £500 so which would you chose and should I consider any others???

Thanks
