Hi All! I am planning to buy a hybrid bike and my budget is £500. I'll be using the Halfords c2w voucher thats going to arive early July.
I want suggestions of what is the best I can get in the market for £500. Halfords tells me that for the c2w scheme they'll order a bike if they don't stock it generally.

    I notice that none of the 2011 Boardmans come in under £500 which might lose them a few sales as I know that the Royal Mail scheme, amongst others, have a limit of £500. Hope my 2008 Boardman lasts me quite a bit longer

    Shouldn't the royal mail scheme be doing those big red steel bikes with a rack out front for the mail bags, like this?
