If you're looking for a genuine event bike I think they were all hard tails.... I may get corrected on this but I was of the belief that full suspension ones were just an aftermarket thing???? You may not care !!!!!
You are correct FC, the event bikes are hardtails, I have some feelers out for Gerd in the G4 club at the moment.....

i have the exact same bike and it was an event bike, only been used a hand full of times and in really good condition, may be persuaded to sell but not sure on a price
If you have got good condition G4 Challenge Event bikes, they must be the rarity, most of the challenge bikes I have seen are sheds......been trashed by the competitors, or unloved since release to the general public.....
I have this full suspension version, always on the look out for a decent event hardtail though

The "Event" hardtails were used in the actual challenges, the full suspension bike was created after the challenge for owners to buy.
It's very difficult to determine if a hardtail was used on an event though, the main way to tell is if its "well used" as most of the event bikes were trashed.....
If it's in very, very good condition it probably wasn't used on events.G4OC Secretary

I also have (or rather Mrs Zeb has) the same full suspension bike as you DurtyDisco

My "event bike" was used by LR IRL during a G4 Promotion, where they had a D3, RRS & Defender all in G4 livery touring around the dealers here in Ireland, fully kitted out with bikes & kayaks on the roof racks. Some careful negotiation, secured one of the bikes used during the promotion 8)
I then bought the full suspension bike for "Mrs Zeb" through my local dealer. So we have (somewhat) matching G4 bikes 8)
