So after some considerable badgering from me, my brother has finally given in and decided to move away from the £100 'full suss' BSO's that he has insisted on trashing for the past few years, and buy a decent Bike that wont fall to pieces in a few months.
He uses his bike everyday as a commuter/town bike, lives in cambridge, so there is precisely one hill he will ever have to climb, but I dont reckon he's too down with the SS. He says he likes the look of this http://www.reveloutdoors.co.uk/08-Giant-Escape-R1/cycledetail/1134 I dont think it looks too bad for the monies, but then i know fuck all when it comes to gears.
