Bike shops in Northern Ireland

JohnHenry

Alright guys,

heading up north next week and looking to buy my first road bike, budget is around $500, max 600 if something blows me away.
I would perfer to buy a quality second hand bike than an average new one to be honest, anyway looking for a bit of advice on where to go?
anyone have experience dealing with bikeshops up north, good secondhand dealers etc, all advice welcome on location, type of bike, etc,

Merci,

JH

Thank you Mr Christie, it's always great to read an honest, grassroots product review.

I'm sure your enthusiasm for said product is in no way related to the fact that you registered that domain name yourself.

just remember CRC not open at weekends (late night thurs) and you need to ring in advance if you want to try a specific bike

ianni 1 post not your company by any chance is it ? read the forum charter

lumen : you way sharper than me today (note to self must check dates on rest of posts)

IanNI

Of course mate...need to push this product myself in the South...but it is a fantastic bit of kit...no kidding!

Ian- not a big problem you coming on and saying you sell this thing, if someone had already specifically asked about it, but it is disingenous to pretend that you are a customer of your own company. Flat out lying in fact which would not particularly tempt me to buy anything from you. Your post is also completely irrelevant to this thread.

IanNI

To be honest I agree, just trying to make a living...I was a customer of the product...thats why we stock it!
Sorry for offending!

Anyway back to the topic.

What about shops in the Newry area? I have heard about JMC Cycles but are their any other ones worth visiting?
