Despatch riders bike, check it out!
It belongs to one of the guys at work.
Notice the panniers which are actually a set of cheap suitcases that cost £30 in total. He made a frame up to mount them. Sprays them with WD40 every now and then to waterproof them.
The special comfort seat is bubble wrap stuffed into a nylon bag and strapped to the seat. WOrks as well and is far cheaper than something like an Airhawk seat.
He got 24,000 miles from his last back tyre.
The bike cost £475 and he has covered 75,000 miles on it.
Cost effective biking, he's not skint, just begrudges spending money on non essential items.
