Can you lot help me out please?
I am currently commuting on a £99 catalogue special with a dodgy full suspension setup and cheapo knobbly tyres.
My commute is about 5 miles and includes:
the road through town
the fast road to the motorway and then along the A road (I currently ride this on the pavement where there is one due to the difference in speed between me and the car and lorries.)
country lanes
bridlepath (muddy grass track)
I don't need full suspension, but I need some kind of sturdy tyres for the lanes and the bridlepath, but I would like to increase my speed on the road section so I can face cycling on the fast road.
I would like to buy from Evans or Wiggle with a budget of about £300.
What would you advise? I want to consign my catalogue special to the tip.
Many thanks
