Just don't go buying the 1st cheap one you find, there are a lot of real snotters out there and it's easy to get your fingers burnt. It almost always costs more to make a cheap bike good than to buy a good one in the first place. Have you got anyone who knows about bikes who can point you towards a decent one? Good luck with the saving, we all look forward to hearing that you've found one. They're a knowledgeable and patient bunch on here so feel free to ask any questions. Just a word of advice, there's a guy an here who goes by the name Tommyardin, the chances are he'll tell you at some point to buy a silver one... Don't. They're really slow. :lol :lol
Hi Vinny, some great advice there, thanks pal.
I'm an ex Car Mechanic but I know my way around bikes too, so I don't mind a bit of a project if I'm honest!
If i do find one that needs a bit of love i'll start a project thread somewhere for anyone who might be interested.
Thanks everyone for the kind welcome, looking forward to getting a bike and getting stuck in on here 8)
