Need to buy a boy's 12" cycle cheap as poss.

budget_barbie

I'm really no no desperate hurry but really want one as cheap as poss. anyone seen anything cheap in the sales.

any bargains I have found have been out of stock.

There is NO WAY I am spending £70 odd quid on a 12" bike for a 3yr old as it will be so short lived.

Any halp appreciated.

I would recommend sterling house excellent bikes at excellent prices, but they did let me down 2 weeks before christmas by sending the wrong BIKE!! I was so anrgy because it was ordered mid nov and showing as in STOCK , to be fair they did send replacement more expensive bike...(charged no extra)
I did see wilkinsons had 12" for £17 not a bad bike, also saw thread here somewhere for winnie the pooh £17 think it was empire stores ??
I purchased one from argos in the end TONKA paid £50 though :rolleyes: but very good quality bike with 2 brakes... :T

We just got an Action Man bike from Halfords that was £80 down to £63 for a 16" wheel and good sturdy construction. Cheaper prices (I think) for smaller wheel sizes. Check out the website - good luck! https://www.halfords.com

Hi I don't know if this will be any use to you but our Asda store (Dundee) had a 12" Bob the Builder bike for @£36. It was £50 before but came down in price a couple of weeks before Christmas. Good luck looking.

I got a really good raleigh one for my son for his 3rd birthday from a bike shop that sold on ebay but it was a proper shop as well, but great for me as i lived no where near the shop! Havn't got the details anymore but search on ebay and i'm sure you'll find a few bike shops, i think i paid about £35 inc delivery, for a new raleigh bike, not bad!!

B_B, 2 things, we picked up the last 3 bikes for our daughter as give aways from various places, keep an eye out in papers etc. As you say they only need them for a couple of years so you can pick up some really cheap and decent ones...

Oh and please stay away from discount bikes, I bought a bike from them and they shafted me on a warranty repair...
