Cheap geared beater for my little brother

Posted on
  • Hi all,

    My little brother has had his hybrid bike stolen but is too skint to get a new one.

    He's 6 foot! and only rides a few miles to college and looking for something as cheap as possible. Based in kilburn but happy to collect anywhere in London.

    If you have anything even if it needs a bit of TLC he'll be interested. Please let me know

    Thanks,
    Suami

  • Road bike? I was going to put my Trek 1.1 up for sale this weekend as it's not getting used. 56cm frame, Dug it out last weekend after a long time in storage and the only issue i can see is the SPD's are seized in the cranks (soaked them in oil so will try and get them off this weekend). Sure it could do with a minor service but the condition is pretty good and its very rideable. Can throw in Crud mudguards and rack. Looking for £120 or £100 if i can't get the pedals off. Can get pics if interested, see link for specs

  • Hi mate, thanks.

    Ideally he's after something cheaper, but I've already showed him yours and he's deciding.
    If there's nothing else before the end of the weekend he'll probably take it

    Cheers

  • Im based in Kilburn, and I have a 2003 Trek Alpha 4300, fully stock, with an 8 speed cassette. Needs a new front wheel and new shifters. Other than that, its condition isn't too bad, and I rode it comfortably when I was 6'0, now 6'3 and growing so won't ride it all too much. Will do it for £50

  • No worries, link below if you want to see some pics, cheers
