Does anybody know anything about these bikes..
The 8.2 Rockrider won best bike last year in WMB.
Spec for this year has added Hayes discs all for a little over £800
Am seriously considering cancelling my Orange Evo4 Ltd disc an getting one
of these instead an saving myself over £100.

These days anyone with some money can churn out Taiwanese generic frames
and hang a bunch of parts off them.

Do yourself a favour and stick with your UK handbuilt Orange. It will
stand you in better stead.

Cant help with the bike.
We have a series of Decathlon shops in the UK, I believe its a
French company, selling medium to low grade sports stuff at
low prices.
OK if you know your stuff, but just dont ask the staff - they're
recruited as money takers with no product knowledge or
social skills.
