£3k - What would you buy?

[Cuchilo]

I love the clock. As though passers by could glance up and know what time it is.

Seriously though, with £3000 to spare I’d get somewhere I can work on my bikes, turbo and hang them up in all their glory.

I call that my front room

Superstar plus upgrade wheels

I think you can just about squeeze a Strato Faster in under three grand.

I’d get one of these and put my bikes in it.

I very nearly got one of those, but i couldnt have put it within 2mtrs of boundary fence due to the height.

Max height is 2.4mtrs when close to the boundary line

The clock is pretty funny, I agree.

I have to put up with this as the biggest I can go, and the bunny has taken over that already as you can see!

Luckily I have a garage through the door there.

Guard rabbit eh? Good thinking.

Perhaps reconsider getting rid of your pigeons.

What size bike are you after?

THIS £3k bike can be had for only £1550 with the current £150 off £500 offer! Brand new out of the box but only 58cm size left and as a previous owner of the 58 I can suggest only 6' 2"+ people need apply, I always found mine slightly cumbersome at only 6' 1"

48% discount for brand new full warranty bike!!!!

EDIT: Never mind, just saw your earlier comment about disc brakes not being an option. Shame because they are brilliant and if you get the right wheels need never replace them again. Perhaps the link will be useful for someone else?

Being a short 175cm isn’t much use either, as the real bargains are always the larger frames.

I'm 6'5" & whenever I look for N+1 I always find they only have real bargains in the smaller sizes Bloody sods law

Honey badger hotels are fine, but a pigeon house? Get outta here!
