looking at Eddy Merckx also.

looking to spend around £200

I'd like a beater/commuter bike. I like 80's road bikes aesthetically, like Peugeot/Mercier.

I'd need around a 58cm frame. Happy for either a complete set up or a frame that will give me a bit of a project.

I'm in Bristol, happy to travel to the surrounding areas.

thanks a lot guys!

Hey there,

I'm looking for some tips from people that know a little more about bicycles than me...

I currently own a charge plug racer and a very nice peugeot triathlon bike, which has all it's original parts and is all shiny and lovely.

I'm selling the charge, as i live in bristol and after a few years of knocking about, i would like to get something geared for my daily commute because as some of you may know, it's well hilly here. I have a friend that wants it and it's going at the weekend.

So, now I would like something to replace it. I want to keep my peugeot as a bit of a long cycle/weekend ride type thing. It may be a faux pas here but it's not really something i'd consider a beater or a bike i'd like to lock outside of work every day. it's a bit too shiny.

Problem is, I'm quite vain, so I would like something geared, nice looking yet sturdy and easy to ride and fix. I like french 80s road bikes, so looking at merciers and more peugeots at the moment, but something i wouldnt mind knocking about a bit. locking outside a pub and such.

Anyone got any tips of what I should go for?

thanks

how much if we collected?

hey sounds good, could you send me some pics please?

wow that's a nice bike, though unfortunately a little out of budget.

I should have said in the first post that I would be looking to pay around £100 - £150 for a bike that needs some work...

Sorry for the vague call out, but I am looking for a road bike for my girlfriend. I don't mind doing work on it if needed. Something in the style of a Mercier, Carlton, Peugeot etc is desirable.

She is 5"4'.

So does anyone have anything that they would part with that would be suitable? I am based in Bristol.

Great! PM'd

Yeah I lost a trialthlon one on Sunday unfortunately.

I am not the most knowledgable on bikes, so if you see something that is light and good value, please could you send me the link, or make recommendations on models etc? I've been looking at the PX-10

Thanks Kay, these arent really what I'm looking for, but thanks for the offer!

Anyone have anything?

Actually, sorry, not a singlespeed. Need some gears for those Bristol hills. Sorry.

Great, could you email me at slimreaper11@hotmail.com please. excuse the address, I was young!

Or open to other nice 80's era road bikes, raleighs, carltons etc.

Ah, thanks anyway. would be a little bit small, but I will keep looking!

Also, would consider just a frame that I can build up.

I'm looking for a Peugeot road bike to buy. Would prefer something with Reynould's tubing or one of the Triathlon version - one of the lighter ones and with the stripes on the frame.

I'm 6'1" so need something between 58-60cm

I'm open minded on the price, depending on the condition of the bike.

Am based in Bristol.

Thanks!

No prob. Let meknow if you change your mind!

Is it inhumain to bury him at sea?

scratch that - £200

Hi, I am considering selling my Charge Plug Racer '09. Is a size L so 58 cm. I have bullhorn handlebars on it at the moment but have the drop ones too that I can chuck in.

Is in very good condition. Has a few light scratches on the surface of the frame, but very normal wear and tear from a couple of years normal riding to and from work. Has all original parts apart from the bars and the griptape, which is replaced with Specialized blue foam tape.

I'm based in Bristol. Would be looking for around £250
