Hi All,

I'm new to the biking scene and don't really have a scoobie. I have a hybrid to improve my fitness and a mtb for when i can get my arse off road, but am looking at a 3rd bike......

I need some help please. I have got the chance of buying a Proflex Attack Le bike for £100. It seems to be in good nick and has a new elastomer rear suspension piece fitted. It also has a rock shox judy fork. It has been converted to single speed too. I only want to use it as a beach bike for when i go away on holiday, so doesn't need to be fantastic.

Any help on should I or shouldn't I would be very much apreciated.

Cheers,

Steve

    FS singlespeed? Never heard/seen that one before. And elastomer suspension? Personally I wouldn't touch it - I would look for a hardtail or rigid bike if you just want to use it as a hack.
