Hi,
I'm after a new track bike, but not sure when to buy one. I imagined about now the market would be flooded with people selling their track bikes now we're in the off season but it doesn't really seem to be the case, in fact some of the best bargains I've seen have been around July time.

I've seen a bike that fits what I want but I'm not sure whether to wait or not. I don't want to wait for winter only to find out that people just don't sell track bikes in winter and only sell between spring to early autumn.

The winter market the last few years for bikes in general doesn't seem to have had loads of bargains, I figured because more people are wanting to buy in winter nowadays in the hope of a bargain which pushes prices up.

BCF, what do?

See one you really like + Check your budget = Buy it.

The longer you hold it off the longer you are without a race bike. The waiting for winter thing is more for road bikes when people are bored and want to offload their bike for a different one.
