    Hi Bella

    No in the end we were to get a bike in Halfords and they couldn't get the bike in the Tralee branch , as it was an online deal. What kind of money are you talking about and do you have photos of the bike..

    I have photos alright on my computer at home so I can send them on later. This is a link of what the bike actually looks like:

    I paid 599 for mine through the bike to work scheme and have cycled it very little (unfortunately I have back problems which are prohibiting me from cycling a racer)

    I'm open to reasonable offers rockjock, is there a price you'd be willing to pay? There are accessories coming with it aswell, bike light, bike mirror, puncture kit, drinks holder and bottle

    I have a friend with a Raleigh Airlite Aura 2011, size 48cm ladies specific road bike. She has recently upgraded to a carbon bike and has this surplus to requirements now. She is 5'7" and the bike has been a perfect fit for her. It has an Aluminium frame, carbon forks, Shimano Sora 9 speed gearing with a compact FSA chainset, new chain, 12-28 cassette, bar tape. Can post actual pics if you're interested but here's a link to the original. http://www.surosa.co.uk/369097/products/raleigh_airlite_aura_2011.aspx
