Have decided my lazy legs need some attention, along with general fitness.
Now looking for a bike that hits the balance between reasonable quality i.e. won't fall apart and various components function well, against price, plus a nice bike would get nicked in moments anyway. Therefore, no serious stuff, more like a toy that will last. The roads here aren't great and a little unmade track will be traversed.
Front suspension desired, 10 gears are plenty and needs to be available by mail order as the stores here seem to keep cheap n nasty or mega bucks. The only exception being Decathlon so models from them of interest also e.g.

I'm completely out of touch with bikes and what features and makes of various parts to look out for.
No problems with buying a lower spec. bike and replacing the odd part to achieve goal.
