edge Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 EDIT - Have now got one. Anyone bored of the summertime fad ? I'm on the hunt for a decent MTB (oooh look at me with short terms ) I have seen a few bikes go for very good prices on here and i would rather give a member some cash than risk it with some twit on ebay unless you know someone who is selling. I can travel to collect aslong as i can use the loo and i get a nice cuppa coffee (none of this instant rubbish) w.h.y much ta's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not exactly hardcore but will be doing some miles on it and hope to get into it alot more a give it some abuse, I had cheaper bikes before and since riding the other halfs specialized bike i have been a bit spoilt. Ahh mine wont be of any use as i'm 6ft3. Will ask around though and we are getting alot of people in the shop trying to sell 2nd hand stuff. That would be good mate. Your miles away but if something good comes up then its worth a trip as i dont pay for fuel in the work motor. i have a very light and well specced Gt but looking around the 500 mark lots of new parts and carbon bits I'm just starting out so nothing too flash yet.
