    Hey, I am looking to buy a road bike and have hearad that there is a weekly market in dublin which sells bikes at hugely discounted prices. I believe its near DIT but am not sure about this. Could someone let me know what the story is with it? Ie. Where is it on, when and can I trust the bikes they are selling? Thanks

    I know that there is a market off Gardiner St on a Saturday morning, where a lot of stolen bikes are allegedly sold. According to a newspaper story from last September, when a woman reported her son's stolen bike to the Gardai, they told her to go there and see if she could buy it back :eek:

    To be honest, any bike you buy very cheap from a market will be either stolen or broken I reckon.

    That includes something legal going wrong if you're found in possession of a stolen bike afterwards.

    This, plus all the bad karma you'll get for funding bicycle theft!
