Wanted: Cheap(ish)bike - Inbred or similar

Having sold my 29er Inbred a couple of months ago my son now wants something for the odd bike packing trip and his uni commute - I'm not sure how much he'll use it so I don't want to spend a lot.

What's about up to @£350 (less if possible) - another Inbred would be great but will consider most options - medium or large frame depending on brand

I’ve got a large Sanderson 29er frame for sale in classifieds. Similar frame to an inbred. It’s also on eBay with no bids yet so I can end the listing if you’re interested

Thanks - it looks great but TBH by the time I build it up it’s going to be over budget

I’ve got a 26” inbred hardtail (18”)
Nothing flashy.
Maybe £250?
Can email pics.

Al's house is right on the border. You could meet and pass it over the barbed wire :wink:

Presumably people from Wales can enter English lands? Kinda like the 80’s :???:

Nope, we're still not allowed to travel, so Steve will need to reach the border via a combination of stealth and cunning.

While I don’t have a grappling hook gun I do have a petzl dual speed zip line pulley and lever hoist to tension the wire, I think it could work.

I think it might be easier to just wait a week or so!
