ANy suggestions for a good source? I have been looking on Fleabay, but would have to drive miles to collect one. Might go out for a mooch around the bike shoppes later.
Tipsy might have a spare one going cheap, like... rubschin:
-
Halfords have a sale on ..... I know 'cos a small boy is getting a new bike for his birthday. whistle:
-
"Growler has persuaded me to buy a bike"
Did I?
When was that then? rubschin:
-
YOu talked about it for about an hour when you visited ::)

Bloody didn't, well not for an hour anyway.
Why do you always have to exagerate ey, why?
Are you actually a wumman? whistle:
Good idea anyway,
Halfrauds as the dog sez.
Try a few. Saddle comfort, gears quality, brakes quality and frame weight, oh, and quick release front wheel too...and get them to show you how to use that facilty, as it'll involve disconnecting the brakes....CONCENTRATE! ::)
There's a lot of shit on the market, so don't get sucked into buying some cheap but bright looking Chinese made turd on wheels.
You get what you pay for, and if it looks too good to be true, it WILL be a crock of crap.
If you get one this week, I could come over in me van and bring mine too!! happy088
-
Are you taking all this in blamanche 'ed? noooo:
DO NOT purchase some cheap shit off the intermong or mail order. noooo:
I WILL be doing a quality control inspection when I arrive, and WILL confiscate and destroy if it doesn't meet the required Growler Standards, is that understood numb nuts? rubschin:
It's for your own good and safety...and mine if I have to ride alongside you.

Only down side is it's a bit of a lottery as to what make and model of spotty yoof you get to explain things to an equally dough brained carrot 'ed. whistle:

He could hang it from the wall alongside THE quality rug.

You need to think about what you are going to use it for first. Off road, on road, tourer or hybridy thing. Then weight. Then cost. Then size. Specialized are prolly the best and you'll find a good range in prices. Halfords are doing Boardman carbon frames at low prices.
Good luck. And don't forget you will most definitely be needing lycra. cloud9:

Lycra eeek: I am not planning to feed your crude fantasies. I have dignity angel1
