    this is why new people hate joining this forum, we just want to get involved in cycling, but go on, make it a bit harder for us.

    Thanks mate - right now, I haven't really got the time to build and learn as I go, so just want a bike for the time being, looking to get started building in a few months. Thanks for the advice though, I'm sure I'll be calling upon everyone in a few months time.

    Right now, its just a bike I'm looking for

    Hi - after a bit of snooping round the forum and an unsucessful post in the Any Question Answered post - I've decided to jump in with a Wanted ad.

    Looking for a first single speed (going to build one over the summer but just want a full bike for the moment)

    Not got the biggest budget for this ideally looking at £200 and under - which is why I'm thinking a Charge Plug as it seems to still do the job second hand for a a reasonable price. I've not quite picked up the cycling lingo yet, so I'm 6ft so reckon that 'medium' would suit me.

    willing to take on all comments/suggestions on this.

    Yes, it could. My laptop (mac) had exactly this problem. New charger fixed it.

    If you take the charger into PC world they can test the power pack for you to identify whether or not it is faulty

    Well I was posting here to ask for general advice as to a first bike before writing a wanted ad that probably wouldnt go anywhere as I don't know what to ask for. Obviously didn't make this clear in first post.

    No I haven't got anything, I don't want to build just yet, not until I've learnt some more stuff about building etc. At the moment I just want a bike to use for the time being.

    Pretty soon I'm going to take the leap and get my first singlespeed bike, so I'm gonna hit you all with the cliche statements now to get them out of the way- my budget for this one is £200 top, once I get to grip with things I'd like to build my own over the summer, I don't have much experience, apart from scrolling through this forum for the past couple of weeks, is it a charge I want as a basic first bike, I'm 6ft...etc etc.
    So when I do post that message in the Wanted section -what is it that I should be looking for, what makes, what specs. ?
    Any help would be appreciated - I tend to overthink these things.
    I'm based in Clapham btw so will be heading to the south beers just as soon as I have a bike to get me there
