    Hopper SE - Bargain?

    Scott I ordered a thumb because I wanted to fit on the left side because of the gearchange and twist type would not (in my mind ) work the right way about. Now I see you have the SE which has the 6 speed - so how did you fit it all - can you post a photo please.

    Hopper SE - Bargain?

    I bought a similar one in June ( had the longer range and rear suspension) @ about £380. Must say I was very impressed with the quality at that price, didn't get a chance to ride it much as have been ill. Hopefully give it a blast next week when I am in UK. I think you'll both like it
