If you apply for a voucher, does it have to be spent on a bike? Could you buy wheels with it instead?

    Does a unicycle count?

    It has to be spent on a "complete bike" not parts ie just wheels. Now having said that speak to the shop and see "what they will do". Some shops will bend the rules and some wont. The shop where my mate got his from were willing to let him by parts but i must stress that this is against the rules of the scheme. You are not allowed to pay any extra either but i know two of my mates who added to the cost of their voucher and one of those shops was RIBBLE.

    Thanks fella.

    I've got two bikes already, thought it may be a way to save some cash on the cost of some Carbones. I'll get in touch with Ribble and see what they say.

    Called Ribble, they said no. That's a pain. I'll have to convince my wife to let me raid our savings now :(
