    Hi guys,
    I've been looking into getting a Pashley bike for my better half and I came across Cinzia Bombi bikes today in Eurocycles. They are Italian and very stylish indeed. The build on them is not the same as the Pashleys but they are lovely looking bikes and I was just wondering if anyone here has one/or knows anything about the brand ?
    Thanks in advance !

    Update:
    I had a good look at the Bombi and as well as being half the price of the Pashley it is also no where near the quality of the Pashleys....so I ordered a Pashley from BikeDock in Belfast.
    They were a pleasure to deal with might I add and the price was €200 less than what Eurocycles were looking for the same model.
    Free delivery to Dublin to boot.

    Missus is gonna be delighted !

    I have a cream retro bombi. I looovvveee it. Best bike ever. It has no gears on it but I still find it ultra easy to cycle and it looks cool in the cream.

    they are stylish looking bikes, but you might want something with gears for the ups and downs of city cycling.

    As for pashleys, they are just way too heavy

    I know the place in Dun Laoghaire - bought there last year. Price was 20% higher then in Belfast, had to haggle a lot to get a decent deal.
