Afternoon everyone!
My names Danny, i've been trying to get into riding for some time and now i've saved up enough and the days are long enough I think i'll be able to get started.
So I was in Halfords today and noticed this bike:
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._productId_991927_langId_-1_categoryId_165710
But i've also noticed it's 2013 model is the same price, but I prefer the colour scheme.
Can anyone tell me if there is much difference between the 2? Obviously ones newer but to my untrained eye everything looks the same but the color?
I originally started on a Viking Giro D'Italia I bought off ebay, I think thats what it was called anyway. It was good, got approx 30 miles on it but the gear changing on the flat part of the handlebars was an absolute pain and after I had finished work it was dark and riding in the dark was not ideal so I sold up and im ready to try again.
What equipment will I need as a starter? Obviously a bike, helmet. Anything else?
Thanks for your help.
