So, I need Gaf's help in buying a new bicycle.
Must be under £100. I don't mind buying used, so bear that in mind. Can be mountain or road bike, don't care. I just moved to London and I intend to use it as my main mode of transport, so it's going to be used every day.
To everyone who's going to tell me I can't get a decent bike for such a low price (and I know it's still bound to happen, what with this being Gaf), I've been cycling ~150 miles per week for the last 4 years of my life, and I did so on 2 bikes that respectively cost £60 and £85, so that's utter and complete bullshit. Sure, they weren't the best bikes ever, but they got the job done and NEVER disappointed me.
This time around I thought I'd minimize my losses and ask GAF first, that way I'll get the best thing possible while spending as little as possible.
I'll emphasize I don't mind buying used, so you can go over budget as long as you think I'll be able to find it used for less than £100.
I cannot stretch my budget any further as that's literally as much as I can afford to spend without sacrificing anything.
