Bike Needed

Warmer weather is coming, time to shed some winter timber.

 

So, I need a bike.

 

Recommendations, please and I'm not looking to spend a gazillion quid.

I got a boardman hybrid from wiggle which has lasted well. Got hammered in Germany doing about 120km a week for 8 months

Whatever you do if get one from Halfords don't let the useless cunts put it together for you. I got an Apollo from there and I was back and forth every other week with the piece of shit falling apart on me.

Decathlon.

 

They do some really well specced stuff at pretty unbelievable prices for what you get.

A penny farthing should do you I reckon.

Do not buy anything from Halfords. I got a bell and a replacement bike seat there on my last trip over and within a week they had both broken. very poor quality stuff in there. waste of time.

Can get you one within an hour pal.

Haha, Raleigh Turbo.

Get one from Cambridge. I got two 'reconditioned' ones for £15.

 

One of them got 'reconditioned' on Saturday outside my new house in London as I was moving in.

 

Seriously though, Gumtree, for all your nicked bike needs.

Oh you mean that sort of bike.......!!

Wiggle have got upto 50% off some of their bikes at the minute

Decathlon do a good range of bikes at decent prices.

I've had two from halfords, had no problems.
