Designed for A superbly equipped 650b hardtail mountain bike with SHIMANO Deore/SLX 3x10 groupset, ROCK SHOX Solo Air forks and AVID DB1 hydraulic disc brakes. The oversized bars, MICHELIN 27.5x2.1 tyres and durable wheelset are ideal for hitting the trails. This excellent package is built around a completely re-engineered lightweight lifetime warranty 6061 alloy frame which has been specifically designed to get the best out of the 27.5" diameter wheels.
Seems like a bargain to me if your after a reliable mountain bike you be hard pushed to find anything better at this price!

Nice price for spec, forks alone would cost about 150

There's room to move the saddle up and down depending on how tall you are!

Why would this not suit bike parks or actual mountains?
I have ridden actual mountain BITD on a steel ridgid MTB with cantilever brakes, and ridden trail centres on a ridgid cyclocross.
The bike has solid Deore gears, hydro brakes and a suspension fork, it should do fine, it won't be the lightest, it's not full suspension, but I imagine it will last if looked after.

U WOT M8!!?
If you think a hardtail with 120mm of half-decent suspension can't be ridden on any red route you need to up your skills. I've been riding a 120mm hardtail for years it's only got Raidon air forks on. If you think you need massively expensive gear you're plastering over your own failings. 20 years ago everyone was happy as larry with with simple spring loaded forks and managed to ride everything they ride now.

If you need something smaller and more aggressively I suggest looking at this;
