Guys,
In my search for a sub £600 bike I stumbled on this - Canyon Yellowstone AL 3.9.
Hadn't really considered a 29'er but reading reviews of the Voodoo Bizango and a couple of others I could be tempted.

The Canyon looks pretty well spec'd for the money - decent forks.

Anyone have one?

Their customer service can be somewhat iffy. XC30 v XC28 isn't a massive improvement.

Just buy a cheap 2.2 or secondhand, save your pennies for next year's full suss wink

Got one of their full sussers. Great value for money and always well specced bikes.

Never had any issues with mine but be sure of your size and hope there's nothing wrong when it arrives. Not sure they are any worse than other companies but buying mail order is very rarely as good as buying from a shop when you need them to sort something.

I'd take the Rockrider 8.1 over this.
