Hi all,
Looking for advice on a hybrid bike, I'm looking at a mens version as she too tall for women's bikes :roll:

Price is £300 so looking on classifieds and flea Bay ect.
she's a 24"! But been told 22 fits with seat up.
Quite hard finding 24" bikes to be honest.

Any bike model / makes you suggest, so far looking at boardman Hybrid Team.

Thanks

    I was going to recommend the boardman hybrid team ..... as I bought one for myself .... to be fair, other than the boobs, arse, penis thing and a few social and personality traits ...... I am not that of being a woman ... there is probably only a chomosone in it

    so any questions about the boardman feel free to ask

    As luck would have it, you've just missed a Halfords 20% discount sale that included the Boardmans and Voodoo Marasa.

    Quickly looking elsewhere, this Vitus Bikes Dee VR City Bike - Nexus 2017 doesn't look too bad for spec, especially with 10% British Cycling discount (like you also get at Halfords).

    Worth having a look at Evans - they have a trade in deal of £30 agains a new bike between 200-400 (if your friend had an old bike lying around) and something like the Pinnacle Lithium might be good.

    I have a Merida Urban Crossway, which is slightly more expensive, but well specc'd for the price.
