I've just got off the phone to eurodespatch (the people who deal with bookings for taking UNBAGGED bikes on eurostar). The 'window' for booking the bike spaces on eurostar is now the same as booking for the main travel tickets - so in theory you don't have the dilemma of deciding whether or not to buy a ticket before the cheap seats runs out.
(Background for those who haven't travelled with eurostar - it used to be that the tickets would be available 4 months ahead but bookings for the bike spaces didn't open until two months before travel).
I think eurostar tickets are now available 6 months ahead.
Unfortunately you still have to buy the bike ticket separately, and they are still outrageously expensive, but hey, it's a step in the right direction.
