    You can get decent bikes for a few hundred easily here. I got a fairly nice one which cost £600 but that was probably spending a bit more than necessary. They also threw in a few freebies with it.

    Electric obviously would cost more though.

      To be clear, we’re talking brand new here, right? Because I don’t think you can get a “decent” bike for less than 1.000 € anymore where I live. For me, decent parts would be in the Shimano Deore or equivalent price (and quality) bracket.

        Yeah brand new, if you are going over £1k its getting to the sport/racing sort of bikes, not something you would really use for commuting or casual bike rides
