Just got sent the weekly special buy email here in oz, looks like Aldi are selling bikes now...

29er, 1x10, suntour forks.

Doesn't look too bad for £225.

May be a sign of things to come for UK aldi?

Looks like they've employed an Orange welder 😂

ˇProduct can potentially cause a manual handling injury due to its gross weight.

lol

To be fair, 16kg is a fair bit of flab, bet you could easily get that down with a few choice spares. Wonder which bits are made of cheese?

I noticed that, surely it can't be 16kg!

It says box weight 16kg so theres probably at least a couple kilos of cardboard etc so maybe not too bad after all!
