I went with a raliegh AF10 in the end as it was brand new but just second hand - the tyres still had the rubber nipples on them, could turn down a new bike for half the price. Good luck |

After a year, I've had to refresh the tape, and changed the tyres to Gator Skins (fewer punctures) but other than that it's been a great bike. Evans have it on special at the moment. |
