Hi.
A bit of a strange question granted but I've been thinking lately of buying bikes to sell on for a small profit. I not talking of high end bikes ,but the cheap offerings you often see going for sale in the local classifieds.
They often sell for around £20/30 and require some tlc is the usual description. I'm quite handy with simple mechanical work and these bikes mostly just need a set of new brake cables, possibly a new chain and a good service.
The money involved to bring them up to scratch is quite minimal and would also enjoy just getting my hands dirty messing around with them..
Even if £10 profit was made, I still think I would enjoy the idea of it.
Any thoughts ? :-) :-)
Hope you all have a good day.
