I'm going to start cycling to work...
« on: 25 July 2011, 22:21 »
...but I need a bike. :grin:

Anyone know of any half decent bikes? I wish to spend no more than £90 really. I just want something that will get me to and from work. Reason being is I'm looking to cut expenses and fuel is one of them. So can anyone help?

I'd eBay it mate with that kind of money.

If you don't mind assembling it yourself Amazon is worth a shout, got my bike from there.

Buy second hand for that budget. E bay is your best bet or local free ads.
