PSA – cheap (new!) starter bikes

In case you know anyone looking for a cheap starter MTB who doesn’t fancy buying s/h (understandable if you don’t know what you’re doing) I noticed Halfords (bite your lip – they have their place) are doing a Voodoo HT with shimano gears and brakes and an air fork for £360. If you have to buy new that’s mental. Sadly the equivalent 29er that I am keeping an eye on as a second bike is not reduced so much. Oh well…

Just a little bit more ish (80 quid more), my mate has bought a new 2009 Kona Caldera from Pauls cycles, Tora forks, XT/deore spec. Bargain I reckon.

That’s a proper bargain alright. I find Paul’s and other similar bargain merchants are great if you fit the usually limited range of sizes they have left in the mega deals category. If you do – happy days!
