As above.

Looking for a friend, well, a bike for one of them.

Budget up to £100

Rider in question is 5' 6" and isn't after anything rad. Can anyone help?

I'm in West Wales, but willing to pay delivery for the right bike.

Thanks in advance.

Eifion

Cheers,

I did see that, It may be a little too small and they've no spares or mechanical know how. Ideally looking for a complete bike.
Thanks anyway.

I've put theDB to her as a suggestion. (I assume postage is on top?)

I'll let you know when I hear back.

Thanks

LGF Cheers, you don't happen to have a pic? (So I can pass it on)

In other news, The Saracen you sent me a few years back is now her husband's bike, after the last owner sold it on, and it's still going strong!

Cheers,

Eifion
