Cheap place for bike stuff

TheChief36

Where is the best place to get bike stuff at a reasonable price? Like pumps and inner tubes?

Aldi were doing a whole load of stuff this week: gear, pumps, tool kits etc.

You could try the Bike Shed off Barrack steet

I tried Aldi, or maybe it was Lidl, I always get them mixed up. They should merge and just be one thing.

Halfords isn the worst, they are suppose to be bad for actually building the bikes but there stuff isn't the worst.. Are you looking for anything in particular might have a few bits im looking to get rid of

I basically need a pump and also need to replace an inner tube I think, maybe a repair kit is what I need.

Inner tube is about a fiver in most places.
the pump very much depends on what type you want.

the dealz shop in the queens old castle gaff has them too @1.49 pump and repair kit

Ah ok yep as above sure they wouldn't be too pricey anywhere. If you do spot the electric pump that Aldi sell they are the job

Chain reaction up the north are very good with free delivery. Im all for shopping local but sometimes price and convenience comes into it.

I your bike is a road bike which will require high pressure in the tyres then you ought to go with a track pump. At that, cheap track pumps probably won't do the job. I have and would recommend this one. Tubes are so cheap that it's not worth the hastle of repairing them.

Usually get tubes in Dealz OR Tesco..have track pump for nearly ten years got from Chain reaction.
