Hey guys,

What can i say, im new to the forums and new to biking. I used to cycle everywhere when i was younger on a mountain bike but then it got wrecked and i never got another one.

Now im looking for a hybrid bike. And since in from northern ireland i thought i would ask in the UK forums!

i really only now realise how much bikes have evolved! Some of them cost more than a car!!!!!!!!

Ill be using it for normal commuting as well as for my uni which is very grassy with the odd hill.

My budget is £300- £400. I'll be buying it after xmas. Prob mid January so would like to get an idea of what im looking for and i know there are guys here who know alot about bikes!

So if you guys could give me maybe 3 or 4 to look at. The best i can get for my money i guess.

I should also say, im 6ft 5 so the bike would need to be biggish :P

Any info you guys could provide would be really appreciated.

Im gonna flick through these forums some more and read up. its all over my head. But i have the money now and want to get the best i can get for the money i have now.

Thanks again

Mark Devlin
