Wanted: Beater - £100-£150

Posted on
  • A mate of mine is looking to get into cycling in London so I thought I'd post here.

    He's looking for a cheap ride, it doesn't have to be in great condition, as I'll do the fixing up/parts replacement, only thing is the wheels must be fairly true and it's gotta have some brakes, 56 - 58 cm would be good.

    Cheers

  • Sorry forgot to add that I should be able to collect within London

  • Peugeot Premiere? Photos here:

  • Looks like steel rims, so a no-no I'm afraid, good luck with the sale though.

  • Will do £160... in stoke newington.

  • That's quite nice - a bit too nice, and I'd have to buy him a freewheel and add a back brake, so would push the price up to the £200 mark, so nope but thanks anyways Scrapper...

  • Friends don't let friends freewheel? :)

  • well he's never ridden fixed, so I thought I'd at least give him a chance, and we all know about FWFB's

  • Bit over your budget, as I'm keeping the rear wheel- but I need to move this on:

  • £150 minus pedals and back wheel, you'll need to tighten the cranks slightly also.

    I'll include a BB5 for the back as well, plus rotor.

  • Hey Thanks Dammit, but £150 is really his top end and I don't want to have to spend any more than that for him.

  • No worries.

    Bump for more beaters!
