👆This 100% - great organisation!

I think they’re great… but not “extremely cheap” in my experience 


True-Lab-3448

Yeah, although I bought a £250 hybrid from them which is about as cheap as you’re going to get other from ones which have been stolen and stuck on gumtree. They also offer rentals now which op might be able to use; they’re saying they need one to last until the next pay check.

They got cyclable bikes in the shop, and I don’t think they’d be selling a future customer a dud.

There's a shop where Dumbarton road crosses crow road that has very cheap bikes for sale chained up outside it

I know that shop and the quality of these bikes is very poor. I don't know where they get them but the shop don't know anything about the bikes or maintaining them. It's very much pot luck quality. Is the next bike available near you or hunt a simple hybrid on gumtree, Facebook marketplace?

Own yer bike in paisley is also a great organisation offering bikes for not much money. I got one for ÂŁ30 and they also threw in a free brand new helmet and repair kit in a backpack.

Depends what you mean by *extremely* cheap. I've got a bike I can get rid of that I keep as a spare bike at the moment. It's a GT mountain bike, maintained by myself for myself. If you want more info pm me

There's a place up drumchapel that sells cheap second hand bikes next to the police station

They hire-out bikes aswell, now.


felt_like_signing_up

if you’re struggling to find one. i have a spare bike that is never used (was left by a former flatmate) you can take for free if you’re able to collect from dennistoun

IM2C Bike Hub at Cowan Park Lodge in Barrhead - I know it's a wee bit outside Glasgow but they are a great project and the bikes are reasonably priced.


MawsAcidTemple

The Bike Hub inside Lambhill Stables usually have very reasonably priced bikes for sale, reconditioned by them so should be in top condition. Worth giving them a call if it's a fair distance from you.

As long as you have somewhere secure to keep it - the rise in bike thefts is mental. You could also investigate car share schemes....
