would you consider something new(er)?
Not really to be honest as I think those new ones are a lot uglier.
I'd rather get an old bike that needs some work / few new bits.I think the Decathlon ones are very ugly as well. At least they're cheap-ish.
A friend of mine has one of these; they ride pretty good, but are €500-700 depending on specs,
also to be honest in real life they look worse than in this picture

do you have a decathlon near you / would you consider something new(er)? i've had one of these for the last year (although I'm sure mine was much closer to £100). it's been great, i hop on it without hesitation for short distances / if the weather's cack. it's single speed but has cable routing and a derailleur hanger so at some point i'm planning to spruce it up with 1x7 gears and some gummy tyres.
