Hi guys,

Not really had time and money to have a bike for the best part of the year after someone decided to run mine over. Been making do with tinkering with the crosser.

Anyway you don't want to hear my life story so the real reason for this thread is I have found a bike that i'm interested in buying on Saturday. Decent price and seems looked after but it's a 65 mile trek. If I like it i'm going to get it and ride it home.

So.....Is there anyone on here that lives near Reading and knows about bikes? If you are a mechanic even better! lol

If you are able to help by meeting me at the shop and having a look at the bike for me and letting me know if it's worth buying I would be grateful. Shouldnt take more than an hour and there's 20 english pounds in it for you.

Feel free to reply or PM if you can help. Thanks

You should ask on the SE section.

Tell me which shop and I'll tell you if the bike is any good.

Bridgemoto: Steer clear

MTC: It'll be a good bike guaranteed.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.
