Wanted: Bike
April 22, 2005, 04:27:04 pm
The crap bicycle that I usually ride to work has finally died of neglect. So I need a new crap bike. Nothing too fancy needed. Medium height with an easily adjustable seat would be good as the missus will be using also (can you tell I'm a pro rider). Something suitable for daily road use and poor maintenance.
 Anyone got owt they want shut of?

If you have any moolah to spend Decathlon do cheap bikes that aren't  too shit. (cos there french and take biking seriously)

http://www.decathloncycle.com/

An own brand that does bikes from 99euros to 3500euros is pretty impressive. I haven't bought one, but I would.

Just don't try and look at their UK website, it's shit.

I appreciate this may be too crap for what you're after, but I've got an old (bout 15 yrs) Peugot racer if you're interested. Bought it from Butterworths opposite the Broadfield and the guy had fitted new gear and brake cables and new brake blocks. Its old and it doesn't look flash, but it goes.
I paid him 40 for it, but would obviously sell it for less than that
