I have no idea if this is the right place to post, however I'm thinking of getting the above bike and wondered whether anyone has had any good/bad experiences with it? I've read mixed reviews, any info would be great. Cheers.

Good news! The apache is a really good looking bike and doesn't sound like a broken hair dryer

Well I'd be paying £1750 for this! But I dont fancy a second hand bike and prefereably a similar shape bike. DT125 would be nice!

From where? I'm only really looking to have one for 2 years or so and the Sinnis brand new would be covered if it breaks, a second hand one wouldn't be.
