I purchased my GT XC2 through the cycle to work scheme june 2010,what a bike it's brill, even friends i work with who bought Boardman Mountain Bikes have commented on how well it looks and rides.I live on the East Antrim coast of Northern Ireland so plenty of Ulster Walkways to go riding.I average 50 to 60 miles cross country every second weekend weather permitting and its my transport to work as well.The only complaint i have is the seat.... I've since replaced it with a BRICK lol...comfort is everything....As with all bikes the one thing the GT really likes is the gears and chain well cleaned and given a good oiling every 100 miles or so...Dont use WD40, i use a spray chain oil it stays tacky and makes the removal of dirt much easier to...I give it 10/10 the bike is superb...HIGHLY RECOMMENDED....
