Right Halfords have slashed the price of the Voodoo Bokor giving me a headache as i was lining up the Bizango.. What i need is an expert to look at both and give me there opinion. Cheers Wilki.

They look pretty close spec wise. The Bokor looks like it might be made for the tougher stuff as it has a dropper post compatible frame. The SRAM NX gearing is good and I think the brakes might be a bit better on the Bokor (not tried them but the Shimano brakes on the Bizango are pretty basic).
Both damn good bikes for the money!

I don’t think you’d go wrong with it. Great spec for the money.

Nah all flat here. The closest good place is Aston Hill but that’s all downhill stuff. Cannock Chase is good as is High Lodge in Thetford forest but that’s a bit flat too.

A bit too technical on some of the up hill stuff but is good fun coming down. Thetford has some good single track but is flat apart from the odd bomb hole. Shame that the weather is going off now as I didn’t get out anywhere near as much as I’d liked.
