cheers james,

if you have no luck with fleabay, might be worth looking at the for sale section of bike radar. there are always good bikes on it, have been tempted myself.

but no need now, as elaine is going to buy me a van nichalas mistral for my 50th birthday! Big smile

Decathlon are the closest thing to legalised counterfeiting ever to trade.

And they are French.

So if it's cheese and white cloth you're after and/or someone else's intellectual property knocked off and knocked down, then go ahead, but just don't wear, ride, copulate with it near me..
