MSB
I've had a look at a few of the bikes they've got for sale and they seem moderatly over priced, is that just them or to allow haggle power?

Re: MSB
Yeah Ridiculously over priced. Once saw a Curvy in there for £3300 that was only 6 months ago!!!
Lissa once told me that when they were sat there they witnessed a man riding one bike in, PExing it, riding away on another bike and the PExed bike had a price sticker slapped on it and wheeled straight out into stock without any check over whatsoever. Bit of a Gamble buying from there I reckons. Good place to hang about for a while though.

Thats terrible, a place to avoid then for buying. I popped in Drayton Croft in Hinckley but heard they've gone down hill a bit since one of the head mechanics left, some nice bikes in there though. |

Re: MSB
Are you actually in the market to buy or are you just browsing??

Re: MSB
This may be of some interest JT.
I took these pics as I was up dropping my shock off in Coalville. 2 grand and under 5k miles IIRC.

Re: MSB

The good thing about MSB is they have a huge range of different bikes so you can sit on them and see how they feel. They also seem quite happy for people to go out on test rides. But buy a bike from them, or even have one serviced by them? I'll pass!
