My current mountain bike which has served me many years has nearly had it and I am nearly too big
for it. So I am looking for a new bike which is the problem. I have just joined the CTC and Audax
and intend to do a lot of these rides which are mainly if not all on roads but also I go on holiday
to the French Alps every summer and do a lot of off road cycling. Ideally I would buy two bikes, a
road bike and a mountain bike. But then arises the problem of money, what to buy? I am in the price
range of £350-£500 for either bike. I have been looking at the Specialised Sirrus or the Marin Bear
Valley and for a mountain bike the Specialised Rockhopper. I am 13 and still growing. Can you
recommend these bikes and cheap places to buy them or recommend other bikes. Any help would be truly
appreciated.
