Normally used to riding a full sus over the moors or Oldham and Rochdale.
Signed up to a road bike ride with work - www.london-revolution.com
185 miles over 2 days in May of 2015
What would you recommend I look out for as a second hand buy.
Needs to carry 6'3" and 18st of beef and gristle
Will only use for this ride and then sell on
Thanks in advance for you recommendations
A used Giant defy is worth a look. Comfortable bike.
Im used to riding near you too; live in Royton.
I've got a Felt Z95, as a beginners road bike. It's sound and was just over £400 new, Merlin and Wiggle sell them. I'm selling it soon to upgrade as I like a bit of road action. However it'd be too small for you.
This is alright too. http://www.merlincycles.com/merlin-performance-road-pr7-bike-73113.html
Second hand Genesis Equilibrium?
Nice bikes, comfy. Lots around so should get one at a decent price and be able to sell on
Whatever you can find secondhand.
Many thanks for the feedback, keeping my eye open for a bargain.
S/H Giant defy, Specialized Allez or Cannondale CaaD8 easy to buy, easy to sell on.
A Hybrid would probably see you right.
