Next day delivery on a basic mountain bike

[Jonny TVR]

Struggling to order a sub £500 MB for delivery before the weekend. Anyone got any recommendations?

Depends on size, but Pauls Cycles have a Forme Curbar with 1x10 and hydro discs for £469 in size 17.5"?

Bought many bikes from Pauls and have been great also with a hub issue as well, so backup is there if you need it. Would recommend them.

Thanks guys .. that looked good but only available in 17.5 and I'm 6ft 1 .. would it be OK with the seat up? Also the crank seems too small.. It will be mainly used on lanes rather than offroad

How about this one, then? Size XL so may be on the large side but marginal.

i would go with gravel bike. You are getting a mtb with a coil spring and bigger tyres that add weight and nothing else on the road.

Too small for you. Every manufacturer has differing sizing for you and them but Pauls have a sizing guide below the actual bikes to help you get it right.
