Got the one linked to above and pick it up next week. Was in about 20 mins and i reckon they did about £3k worth of business while I was in

Told you it was the place to go Lazy.

What's the deal with buying a new bike?
Can you not just go into the shop and say...

and load it into the back of the car?

Yes it's that one - but they'd been doing such a good trade on it at sale time that they didnt have any pre-built

How have you found the bike?? Has it met all your expectations??

Been out on it a fair few times now Neil and it's top drawer. Disc brakes are loverly, bike looks cool and (most importantly) it feels indestructible. No rattles, no shakes just feels solid.

Very impressed so far.

Not a true biker, but for what (i think) you're going to use it for it will be spot on

i'll go in and see them next week. I wasnt sure if it was worth paying extra for a named brand or go for the EBC own brand.
