Aza Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Hey guys im considering buying a new push bike. Aint had no luck on ebay as you gotta pick em up yourself and the distance is too far! You know any good sites to buy em from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsteve Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Not sure, but I'm thinking of getting one too. I hate to admit it, but there's one in Asda for £87 which is probs pretty naff, but it'll do what I want it for. Besides some chav will only nick a decent one. I went into a proper cycle shop yesterday and got bored to death about different cog wheels, slight variations in frame diameter, etc, that I will never walk into a cycle shop again. He took 30 minutes to finish his speech and even when another customer wanting to ACTUALLY BUY, he asked them to wait till he finished with me!

Neuro Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 When I was 15 I remember trying to race my friend to the video store down an enormous hill and halfway down trying to overtake a parked car. However another car was coming the other way and, although I nipped in just in time I had no time to mount the kerb at such speed and went straight over the handlebars and landed about 20 feet away on the pavement, breaking most of the bones in my left hand, and my wrist. If I hadn't been wearing a helmet too I'd been well and truly screwed because I took a huge chunk out of it somewhere during landing. I've never set foot on a bike again, even now!

bigsteve Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Got my £87 bike from Asda. Its OK, just the saddle isn't very comfortable and poor gear switching design, but its only for a bit of exercise when the (Scottish) weather is good. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
