Title: Bicycle for sale ?
Post by: Solomon on May 10, 2016, 10:10:15 AM
Hi All - does anyone have one or preferably two mountain bikes for sale? I would like to buy two for use on the trails, fully working and decent quality - ideally a medium/women's and a larger/ men's

If you can help please message me with contact details - Many thanks.

Hi Solomon, we got 2 Specialized mountain bikes from Easyriders a couple of years ago. They were selling off last seasons bikes about this time of year. â,¬100 each

Thanks -

I did try them earlier this year but they don't sell to the public now - they say they have had too many complaints even though they made it clear the bikes were being retired due to the amount of usage they had endured.

Everyone seems to offload their old hire bikes in September / October and I was hoping to pick up a couple before then to cater for summer visitors.

Have you tried the bike hire shop on the way into Cotillo some friends of ours got 2 there for under â,¬100 each. Easyriders did make it very clear that they were sold as seen, it's a shame they stopped selling them off.

Good luck

If you are going into the mountain trails, you will need hydraulic brakes, Block brakes are rubbish for hard riding -
