Having tried a couple of Nomadic Mountain biking sessions on Son’s non-suspension bike,


Spotted this advert - see below
Price about right (according to website this model is £625 New). Sounds the sort of thing I’m after, but the technical bits are all gobbledegook to me. :?
Anybody give me a clue ? – Is what’s on offer good or bad ?? Is it suitable for a 6 foot 13.5 stone, old geezer that would probably only manage somewhere between 10 and 20 outings a year ??
All advice especially the polite type welcome
Cheers
Brian
