Hi,
I'm moving into my final year of university, but it looks like my accomodation will be far from the
campus this time around, eg. further than walking distance. I'm willing/eager to commute by bike,
but I need a cheap second hand one of some sort. I have a racer, but I'm not willing to use that as
I really don't want to use it for the daily grind.
So, does anyone have suggestions as to where I may obtain a good secondhand bike for 'student
prices' in the Staffordshire (Stafford, Burton, etc preferred) area or the Birmingham/Solihull area?
Also, aside from needing lights and real mudguards is there anything else to consider? I've read
sites like bicyclinglife.com and the appropriate sections on commuting.
Many thanks.
