I need a new bike, and I want a good one, but don't want to spend over £100 really. :(

If you can find a better one, that'll be great. But is this one any good?

+Rep to help! :P

[Heart Break Kid]

it is quite good :)
i reccomend you to buy it :)

[Meanies]

blah not a shockwave
they're a beep to put together
when i worked there they made me do loads

my brother says they're not very reliable either
people keep taking them back because they've got problems

[Heart Break Kid]

not at the harods where i pass every now and again
people are always saying to other people they shud get em
unless they hate em secretly and want em to fall off :S

[Corporal]

Nope.
Its rubbish, its a steel frame so its heavy as, then its made worse by it being a dual suspension.
It has rubbish gears and brakes. Your probs gonna have problems with it straight away.
Id spend atleast £200 on a bike to get a good one tbh, it will last you well aswell.
Also dont goto a shop that sells car parts aswell as bikes.
Goto a bike shop, u will get better after sales service because all they do is bikes. Same with the internet if there is a problem with it you need to pay postage to send it back which will cost you about £10-20.

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_21 7790_langId_-1_categoryId_106176 is a good bike

I've had no problems with mine, but its double your budget so you may not want to go that far

[jackass]

Please don't post here telling me to pay over £100. I'm only paying that, or less. I don't have the money! :(

These are the things I need doing for rep..


Does this shockwave have an adjustable seat? (It looks a bit high..)
Is this bike any good?
If you can find me another bike, thats good, for under £100, that'll be great! :)

Thanks! :8

srsly mate dont buy one you will be wasting your money. Just save up a bit more.
Yes the seat moves
no it isnt
no there isnt a good bike for £100.

agreed with corporal tbh. shockwaves are crap anyway. halfords isn't really a good place to buy bikes anyway from my experience. try www.rutlandcycling.com (http://www.rutlandcycling.com)

actually come to think of it they're not very cheap lol. but yeah.
