I know wheelbase does it, but I'm struggling to find anywhere else that does it. Any ideas? They'd need to sell online too.

Cheers

How about a credit card with 0% on purchases, then transfer to another with 0% on transfers when the first period runs out. There are lots of cards ATM with 30+ months. There would be a fee to transfer, but it might mean you can buy exactly what you want from wherever. So the slight charge might be offset by extra savings you could negotiate by paying with a card, not finance.

Yep, or near me but Pembrokeshire is short on bike shops. Off to the lakes at half term so will be going in there. Just virtual shopping around for now. Looking for a sub 1k cx or disc road bike.

1k on 36 months? I wouldn't have thought they'd be much choice out there with that requirement is there?

Tredz do 48 if you want to do it over that long, or Google 0% bikes.

Most 0% won't be over more than a year on a 1k bike

I was waiting for the 'credit is bad' arguement to start.

I'm happy with the debt I'm in. I've gone into it all with my eyes open and can manage it easily.

All that for £25 a month? I'm happy with that...!

Was in All Terrain the other day, they definitely do 3 years but not sure if it's interest free. May be worth checking out?

36 months would seem to exclude bikes under £1000 on the site and at £999.99 they may say 36 months is a no go.

Seems Wheelbase are the only ones to do 36 months for sub 1k, which is great.

I'm not going to get into the whole credit card thing, I'd rather just have a payment that just goes until it finishes.

I've got a choice of several bikes which I like the look of, so I'll be a happy shopper in a couple of weeks.
