Is that new or used?

Nearly every bike shop will have budget mtb's for sale.
What is your budget?

I would assume BNE means Brissy?

Therefore south rd is a bit out of the way.

You say Cheap Brand... you dont say cheap bike.

If you want cheap brand then you cant go past k-mart/bigw, Toys R us et al.

If you want a cheap bike then second hand is definitely the way to go. You will get better quality
for your money. Try EBAY and lookup BNE only. Also lookup yellow pages second hand cycle dealers.

If you want extra cheap then go for one of the Cheap Brands second hand. Most likely wont work very
well though.

Hi Ppl,

Many thanks for replys

Yes, BNE, is Brisbane or I hope so.... Melb is a bit far, specially being I was hoping to ride it
home....lol...

I was "hoping" to get a Huffy Red Rocket for about $70-80.....AAArrrrrrgggghhhhhhh, OMG, that
admission hurt almost as much as my prolasped C7

Yep - normally they won't last long, but like the "chopper" I had in the late seventys I won't get
to use it much...
