I disagree with Halfords comment " they were very helpful with my bizango here in Bristol! It's a fantastic bike, love it. There is way to much brand snobbery & over inflated prices for me........ joe Murray ROCKS. Great design.

Noo Hall when I was young Halfords serviced my bike and put my front wheel on wonky. I only noticed when I was flying down a hill. At the end of the day they don't specialise in bikes they are the Walmart of UK so don't expect to get a decent bike mechanic everytime, alot of the time they are young and not experienced

I've got a 2012 Trek Marlin 29er. It was good out of the box but I've made tons of upgrades on it now 1/10 SLX Shadow Clutch.Race Face narrow wide chain ring ,Rock Shox XC32 solo air fork,Avid Elixir 5 brakes ,wide bar with locking grips,new stem, and 2.2 Captain tires. My bike originally had Shimano Altus/SRAM X4 and mechanical disc with sun tour fork,so it's light years better now .

Hi..... Nice video there! Unfortunately most of the brands mentioned in here aren't available in my country. I was wondering if you could share your thoughts over the Btwin Rockrider 520. I do not go for hard trails. Most of the rides are on roads and a bit of forest cover. The group I ride with aren't fans of hard - riding as well. So will RR 520 fit the bill for a cheap entry level mountain bike?

Since it's the time of year all the new 2016 stuff is starting to come out, why not take advantage and get an even better "last years" model for the same price as these suggested.

Jon explains this at 00:26. It's because the big international brands usually can't compete on price and spec at this kind of pricepoint. We did a test of US$1000 road bikes recently, where we deliberately only included international brands, and we may look into doing the same for MTBs soon.
