............looking for a new bike. looking for a replacement full susser. theres no doubt that our bike to work scheme can save alot of cash, so id like to use it. problem is despite there being hundreds of bike on the website we have to use, when its narrowed down to what im looking for, as in price, brand, model, wheel size, general spec, availability, theres suprisingly little left to chose from. id like to cheekily try one in one of many local bike shops to me to go ahead and buy from B2W scheme. but then im limited . even bike shops seem to be limited with stock. iv been in to my local go-outdoors 3 times to look at the MBR award winning bossnut at £999............nope! they dont have it in store.considering theres so much choice out there, theres not much choice.

iv enjoyed the dale, riding it for five years, its got a couple of issues, 1 and 1/2 inch headtube can be a bit limiting altho now with pick and mix headsets not so much, the rear triangle pivots are a bit delicate which appears to be the main downfall. id like to try something different now.

I had the same issue when buying on the ride2work evheme, after applying a couple of filters on Evan cycles's website my choices were limited. In the end I needed up with last years model that they had knocked 40% off, bargain!

Yeah the lack of a physical Bossnut in Go Outdoors is an issue. You'd have thought they'd have display one so you can sort sizing.
