Hey Chaps,

After my recent BTC win, I took a look at my old decathlon mountain bike sat outside, and thought.. I can't ride that thing, it will kill me. Wanting to get a new mountain bike to eventually take on trails with but we're a fair way off getting there yet as I've got a fair few lbs to lose before, lest I become one of the most momentum-filled (F=ma) things on 2 wheels. For the first 6 months, it's likely just me biking to work on the paths, roads, and the odd trip around the grassy/muddy reservoir we have near our house.

Don't want to spend lots of money and I think its a hardtail I'm after. Mainly as anything other is going to be too expensive. Like I said, I'm pretty heavy set, so something that isn't made for you size 8's would be great.

The budget is £600, can go over slightly, be nice to go under though so I can buy more pies.
