Hello I need some advice in buying a bike. Basically I just need it to take me from point A to B nd B to C so I guess for commuting, to go from one place to another.

I was almost close to buy the Apollo XC.26 20" . This bike has front disk braking, its made of aluminium so its quite light and thus doesnt rust as much as steel bikes.? also it hasnt got rear suspension which means i dont waste a lot of energy when cycling right? this bike also has

Front suspension
Trade Up's from XC.26
7005 Aluminium frame
Suntour branded front fork
21 speed Shimano gears
Front disc brake for high performance braking
Quick release front wheel
Soft touch grips



and costs £140, Do you think this is good value for money, and would it actually be better if I bought the Shockwave SUS 800 (full Suspension) which has rear suspension, V brakes, and is made of steel so quite heavy or the Apollo FC.26 which has v brakes and is made of steel but no rear suspension.

Any advice would greatly be appreciated.


Thanks a lot
