Thanks. I'll check them out.

What were their prices like?

What is "A male mountain bike"  Has it got something to do with the saddle design? 

[MLA]

The owner sold us 1 male and 1 female Specialized mountain bikes (the only difference is the frame size). He said that he had a contract with Specialized which states that he replaces his stock annually. So the bikes are only 1 year old. They cost e100 each. They were bought as seen. I have replaced the handle bar grips and brake pads. I have also bought replacement gear shifts (ebay £18) not needed yet. I also degreased and jetted the build up of crud. They look great.

It has a crossbar.

Female bike on the left.

Bike on the left is a step through  . Not really any such thing as a girls/ladies bike anymore, that ended with the demise of Victorian dress The frame size is what is important nowadays.
100e for a 1 year old Specialized sounds like a great bargain, especially from Easy Riders who I know from experience, maintain their bikes to a very high standard.

Easy Rider don't have any 2nd hand bikes at the moment.

But people will still point and laugh at a man riding a 'step through'

I was going to say " ...unless he's wearing a kilt" but having given it a moment's thought they'd still do it whether he's on a bike or not.

On the other hand wearing a kilt on a non-step-through bike would generate more laughter - especially in cold weather.

Riding a race bike and wearing a kilt with sporran flying in the wind must be the ultimate ambition of every true cyclist. My goodness you have given me some food for thought, so, from January 16th if you see ....................

This is me on my way to the bike shop.

Some dastard had nicked my helmet, horn, handlebars and most painfully, my saddle.
