If you're in the market for a Ralleigh definately check out the Silverback range as well, I think its much better value for money,

Check out the commencal range aswell, better value for money bikes.

What's the price? Seems well specced, and looks pretty cool as well.

Not nearly as sexy at the Raleigh !

The price on it is about R8300. I rode it and the geometry was very racey which I liked- the Recon was also better than the Tora I was looking for.
