Whiterabbit has a Marin, and I'm sure that he'll pop along in a minute to tell you all he knows about the models..........hang on he bought it because of a keen saleman if i recall correctly albeut it is a nice capable bike..... I don't know much about the models as they aren't my thing sorry

Have a look on bikeradar where there are reviews for all things MTB  :headbang:

keep us updated with what you go for though, there are a few MTB'ers on here  :icon_thumleft:

Ha, just Googled Lapierre and thought "that dh920 looks nice", but it costs about a grand more than my wheelbarrow's worth :shock:  But it is shiny, mmmmm
