Are there any thoughts on the offerings of bicycleonline, namely Polygon Suskiu t8 and Marin Rift Zone 3? Or not-so-expensive aluminum trail bikes in general?
I am dithering ... contemplating what sort of full sus will be the one to go for. Do I ditch the Chisel and buy an expensive light carbon number or do I keep the HT and buy a burly one for just doing bike parks (although the local bike parks here don't have uplifts usually).
Those two look like a budget friendly option and I wonder how much the weight matters there, but also how upgrades down the line can mitigate the frame weight ...
