    Clunge! Now there's a word you don't hear often!

    My local bike shop is either a cyclopedia or an Evans cycles. What should I be asking for? I don't want to mince in there lugging the frame over my shoulder and wheel it out covered in over expensive and unnecessary crap!

    Also, when I did ride it I only really ever used 3 of the gears, yet it has like 15 different combinations. Can I get it set up with just 3 or 4 gears?

    Cheers!

    So be gentle, I'm only new here....

    I'm Skinto McGinto at the minute and looking to get a little run around bike. I googled Unipack and found you guys. Glad I did!!

    I used to have some kind of Trek road bike thingy but it's a bit 'tired' now. [TBH- I left it at my Dad's when I moved to Ireland and now I'm back I've found the chain / gears etc are rusted to f*ck...]

    So what should I do? The only thing that looks salvable is the frame (but then I can't be sure) Where youlc I get hold of an in-expensive road bike for the £100 / £150 mark. I don't really need anything fancy as I'll be doing about 10 / 15 miles day tops.

    Thanks in advance!
