Can anyone suggest anything that will do the job for him?
Pretty much any alu 29er from any of the major brands will do the job. If he has a friendly LBS that could look after him I'd start there, simply because it makes looking after the bike so much easier; less time dicking around, more time riding with dogue

Is this the right place to ask this? My GF's dad is really really into canicross (competitive running with a dog strapped to you with a harness). He's having some achilles issues which is stopping him running, so wants to take up bikejor. - much like canicross, but instead of strapping the dog to yourself, you strap it to your mountain bike. He's asked me to help him work out which bike he should get for it but I really don't have a clue about mountain bikes! He's gonna mainly be using it on fire roads and trails. Nothing in the way of elevation or descents and he thinks he wants a dropper seatpost and he needs some really decent disc brakes. Budget is probs up to a grand and it's gonna need to be majority OTP. Can anyone suggest anything that will do the job for him?
