Sup Ns, I'm looking to buy a used hardtail for less than $1k AUD. I've found this one on FB marketplace, and it seems like a good deal to me. I've done a bit of homework, but if someone with a bit more knowledge could weigh in that'd be great!

The bike is a 2019 Cube Reaction TM Pro.

Man this isn’t Pinkbike. But I’d recommend getting the best components you can for the budget. And a good frame you like you can upgrade in the future

Check out the vitus nucleus (I may have the model name wrong) for a good value hardtail. They're only available through Chain reaction cycles I believe, but one of my riding friends got one this summer as his first bike and I was extremely impressed with it.

Diamondback makes pretty decent frames that are easily upgradable

I'll keep an eye out for those brands/models. Cheers.
