    Hmmmm help needed

    Im not the worlds biggest roadie however due to arriving at the pub on a bike most times my mates think of me as a cycling expert 🙂

    One of them wants to buy a road bike – fair play to him….

    He has to get it through the Edinburgh dudes which I told him was cool when he asked for my help

    However it looks like road bikes have taken a big hike since the last time I looked
    Last year a grand bought a whole lot of bike
    This year it doesnt 🙁

    Ive looked at the Edinburgh site and its looking pretty shabby for him – although hes still getting a cheap bike thro the scheme

    Im sure that until recently 1k got you full carbon and 105 as a minimum but apart from Planet X which are not available in his scheme I just cant see that kind of deal anywhere else

    Im tempted to tell him to just buy the Planet X and forget the ride to work as its such a good deal

    Comments welcome

    surely he'll be on the cycle2work or cycle scheme? why does it have to be the edinburgh co-op? and are you/he in edinburgh or elsewhere?

    If edinburgh i'd recommend the tri centre, on south clerk st. they're set up with all the different cycle schemes as well.
