I've wasted far too much time over the last few months dedicating my free time to hunting for a **sweet road bike 58-60 cm; geared or fixed **(right now I’m in London so I’m not too worried either way).

The time I have dedicated to searching has only made the whole situation harder though- I understand more about the bikes and the parts and am getting even pickier with the styles. (in which case I have to question whether it has been a waste of time, or rather a beneficial learning curve I’m having to climb to get to the magical bike out there with my name on it). Anyway…

Essentially, for £400-450 I’m looking for a classic frame with alright parts on it; and a nice paint job.

*Oh, and I do love a bit of matt black. The whole bike? The blacker the better. Unless it's sparkling with a wicked paint job.*

Any suggestions will be gratefully received.

In the meantime I’ll keep bang on the classified ‘for sales’ and keep scouting all the ebays in Europe.

THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THIS.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
