Forgot to describe, a lovely vintage bike which appears to have been in storage all it's life... ^^^^

^for the larger among us!

22.5 is not that large, but yeah that would be a nice bike

says 25.5 right?

i need a cheap road bike to keep me going, please help, xx

I don't know about the quality of this thing, and the seller seems to be selling a load, and there are no brands mentioned, but I am a fgss virgin on a budget, is it worth dumping for one of these? - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=280316615848

Cheers guys :)

I was looking at these... is it dodgy???

quickVit, very dodgy, see one avoid like the plague...

just say no

Heh, there are some advantages to being unnatrualy lanky... the massive frames go a bit cheaper. Will build into a nice commuter I figure.

Thanks for the advice guys, As I say, I am a total noob... I have very little mechanical experience so, building up from a cheap frame, while attracticve, is daunting, not to mention the lack of tools... I have some spanners and allen keys...

Thanks though, I have heard a Fuji might be a reasonable investment...

Buy a front brake calliper and lever and a larger sprocket and you're sorted:
