I have a £500 voucher for the bike shop across the street from me http://www.cotswoldcycles.co.uk/
I don't need anything so I would like to sell the voucher. Would anyone be interested?

Right I've been reading this thread. When I was younger and less fat I was into bmxing and used to be quite good. I'd like to buy a decent but not too expensive mountain bike I have a cycopark on my front door. Help appreciated
a £50 special would be good enough for the cyclopark tbh depends on where else you plan to ride but I would put the money you would spend going to the cyclopark towardsa better bike or travel costs to somewhere a lot better
Thanks for the advice. I want something I can start bike riding on I don't want a full road bike as I'd like to go up the country park etc. I would think about 300 would be a base price but don't wanna go in halfords and pay 300 for a bike and it's a shitter.
pop over to decathlon then for £300 that gets you a reasonable starter bike its where I started

Changed the brake pipes over after having a chat with rick draper about it, so I'm back in uk spec. Next fall I have will be due to lack of skills as I won't have any excuses left!

Had a gentle potter about on a local trail tonight, even with a 36 on front bike climbs great. No hassle at all. So smooth to ride down hills also!

Need a new bike light, one that straps to a helmet that comes with a decent helmet mount instead of one you have to chop and zip tie the shit out of. Advices?

I've got an exposure joystick, which I run with an exposure diablo on my handlebars, plenty enough IMO, and I got both for the price of that 1 cole posted.
