And my first second-hand famed bike is…. an Intense 5.5. The frame was £410 off eBay.

Did a lap of Cwn Cairn on Friday and love it.

looks in good condition! – think thats what they call a bargin!

i originally paid 90 for the frame.
The mate i got it off paid over twice that and barely rode it before i bought it. 🙂 brilliant
I ride to work on it, and go on the odd ride after work on it as well.

Litespeed Vela…. cracked

Lemond…..cracked

hth

just a few of mine 🙂

frame/ forks 86 quid ebay
wheels 20 quid ebay
brakes 38 quid stw forums
other bits stw forums / doner bike (also from stw forums- 50 quid)
new bits = rear mech, tyres, seatclamp, chain , bb 🙂

great dog walking bike and I can ride it to work. Trouble is I really like it and the meta isnt getting a look in!

My 456, ridden only 15 miles before I bought it, but I'm the fourth owner.

All my bikes are 2nd hand – if you know what you're looking at/for the it's the best bang for your buck.

Bought from here, gradually getting it the build it deserves, simply brilliant bike.

Nice Sunn there, ajantom. What age/model is that? Is it a Notion?

Here's my second hand Lava Dome – cost me a whole tenner a couple of years back.

Cheers 😉

It's a Sunn Crosss (love the triple S in the name!) Think it's a 2002/03 frame.

I was given it by my sister's ex b'friend when my old M2 Stumpjumper was nicked. It started life as a rental bike in the Pyranees, then lived in Montpellier as a commuter for a couple of years, and is now my winter SS fun bike – and to be honest it gets ridden most of all my bikes…..rides lovely 🙂
