Hi I havn't bought a new bike for many years, my last one was a secondhand one off a friends dad which is still going strong and my other was a Christmas present off the wife. Prior to that I was 14 when I bought a Falcon racing bike. So it's many years, I want to buy my wife a bike she likes the old style ladies bike with chain guards and whicker basket, I am completely out of touch with what is classed as a good make, I recognize Dawes cycles as they used to be good when i was younger, as were Falcon and Raleigh, but I think Raleigh may have gone down hill a bit so to speak.
Any ideas on makes of Ladies bikes with a basket ect, I've seen Pashley on the net, which although pricey, I would concider stretching to, if they were really, really good. But would be financially happier if i could spend £300 ish, as the type of bike it is it will spend the majority of it's life in the garage or shed. Any sugestions please.
