Afternoon to you all,

 Looking to upgrade my extremely tired hardtail & looking to go down the full sus  route....I need the benefit of your collective wisdom please!! Trawling through the Wiggle sale bikes & I've seen a BMC Trailfox TF03 2009 for £959, reduced from approx £1500. Appears a lot of bike for the money with some nice kit on it, and it seems like a "too good to be true" deal!! Trouble is I'm not at all familiar with BMC bikes...is this bike a pile of poo or as I hope a great deal?!! Many thanks for any advice recieved guys & gals

Hmmm, not bad for the price but I reckon you could get a well known, similar spec and reputable bike for around the same price in the Sep/Oct sales...

(and nope I've never heard of them so no idea how they ride!)

Hmmm, definite food for thought there...I appreciate all your advice fellas. A colleague at work has a Boardman FS Comp...I've had a spin on it and was impressed. Any idea if Boardman is bringing out a 2010 range?
