I’ve been on the look out for a new bike for the wife as our bike carrier is limiting the weight for her bike to 13kg (shes got an old saracen BSO).
I was in the local halfords yesterday looking at the discounted Boardman bikes, as we had a budget of £500 but was pushing upwards as we were struggling to find one she liked.
The chap then showed me a 2010 Voodoo Bantu for £235. Wow, the old spec Bantu is miles better than the new ones, No idea of the weight though, so popped next door to Argos and came back with a set of digital sales. It showed 12.2kg (on an 18 inch frame), managed to get it knocked down to £210 because of a small chip.
Now got a very happy wife with a shiny new bike and a new set of purple digital bathroom scales.
Soooooo, bargain voodoos if your store happens to have any left.
