Best cyclocross bike under £1000 and other CX chat

Depends on your budget, Dugast or FMB if you can afford them or Challenge if you can't. I've been very impressed with my Challenge Fangos, although they struggle in really bad mud (but I've a pair of Dugast Rhinos for that now).

Still some money in the bank after not buying a Lynskey :)

I suppose the real cost comes from having to have as many wheelsets as you have tyres?

Cheers anyway, I'll check them out.
