The shortage of adult bikes has caught me by surprise.

I need a new and BSO Halfords and Decathlon's websites show everything out of stock - is there any point in turning up in the hope of loads of stock they're not admitting to?

Anyone suggest alternative BSO sources that might have stock and where you can actually sit on the bike?

Anyone guess when there will be stock again? Winter?

2nd hand off here is probably better

Where are you and what are you looking for?

Someone must have something in your size and budget.

Halfords apparently have a big shipment coming in - there’s a “available next week” bit on their website.

What's your budget?

A lot of the new Carrera bikes at Halfords have been upgraded to hydraulic brakes from being mechanical disc.

Where are you OP?
Loads of bikes at Hawk Cycles in Cradley Heath. They’re not very good, but they are there to buy.
