Mountain or Hybrid bike circa £250 (or less, I am Scottish)

[Duffy]

Hello!

Looking for the above, in Fife, Edinburgh or Dundee, just a spare to keep at a holiday cottage

Budget about £250, only provisos are that it fits a 6 footer and it works!

Thanks

:-)

The Carrera Subway One from Halfords is pretty much the default budget hybrid bike, recommended by many on here as near unbeatable at the price - decent spec and pretty much bullet proof.

They're currently on one of the rare occasions that Halfords are selling them at the 'full' price of £300 brand new - they're frequently on promotion at £250 or less if you can hang on, or you should be able to find a decent second hand one well within budget.

Quite keen on recycling something sitting at the back of somebody else garage rather than giving Halfords my dosh I suppose.

Yup, I like to do that too. It is a long time since I bought a new bike.
