Traf Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got an Apollo from there and I was back and forth every other week with the piece of shit falling apart on me. 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.

Not in Crawley Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 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.
