appreciate some feedback guys !
I had my Kona Fire Mountain (2005) nicked over the weekend, wrecked, then the police found it and returned it. needless to say it's in quite a state, but the insurance is paying out £450.
So two options :
1) Get it repaired (including the paint job) But it kind of feels tainted after being nicked, if you know what I mean !
2) buy a new bike !!! - so here lies my question.....
I've checked out a few replacements, and was going to go for a Kona Blast (2006) for £420 as that's a step up from my Fire Mountain (reduced from £500 as it's last years), BUT I have a fondness from my youth for Muddy Fox, but haven't seen or been on one for years, but the Quest at £450 looks decent and stretching to a Nebula (£530) is feasable.
What's the Kona v Muddy Fox feeling ?........or any others I may have over looked around £400.
