Anyone got any used or new suggestions for the above?

Currently waiting on responses back on 2 Orange Divas (the bike, not 2 ladies from Essex).

Anything else worth a look?

Ladies can ride non-women specific bikes too...

Boardman bike specs are pretty good... The Comp FI or 650B CompHT especially - I can explain how to get 20% off the RRP if you're interested.

Needs a little bit of fancy footwork, but...

1. Sign up to Quidco. Register your credit/debit cards with them and you'll get cashback on your purchases. (Might as well do this anyway). Link your bank account to it so cashback is paid automatically.

2. Sign up to British Cycling "Ride" membership. http://www.britishcycling.org.uk/membership/articl... - sometimes there are discounts on this (try code 'COUNCIL2'), but it's worthwhile anyway and costs £24/year at full price, and it gets you 10% of everything you buy in store at Halfords.

3. Sign up to Halfords Business Services here: http://select.halfordsbusinessservices.co.uk/ Order the face value of vouchers that you'll need to pay for the bike in-store. Apply the discount code 'ELGHAL13' which takes 10% off that face value. Pay with the card you registered with Quidco and you'll get cashback on that number.

4. Order bike from Halfords - click through from the Quidco website to Halfords' website and order online for in-store collection.

5. Take a printed BC discount voucher and your Halfords vouchers to pay for the bike on collection. Win smile

e.g.
Bike price: £650
Shop will give 10% off for BC (£65) = £585 to pay in store
10% off £585 of vouchers (£58.50) = cost of vouchers £526.50

Quidco cashback on £526.50 is 3% = £15.80

£526.50 less £15.80 cashback = £510.70 biggrin

Thanks for that like you say a bit of hassle but worth it to save a few quid. No just need halfords to repeat the 10% off everything like they dud Xmas day.
