A mate of mine owns this place http://www.racescene.co.uk/

You can spend thousands in there! Sounds a similar set up to the one Wallace describes - tailor-made bikes to fit your exact measurements. Some of their kit is unreal. It's where I buy my energy/nutrition stuff from for Marathon training, and Richard who owns it is a former Expert MX-er

yeh they have got that at work, iv missed this years tho, will be doing it next year.

from what i have heard you rent the bike as such for a year, which is not alot of money anyway, and then at the end of the year you can buy the bike at a discounted rate, which works out at about £10. the bloke i work with has done it the last two years. ill look out for when the next one is coming.

it is meant to be for riding to work as you say, but everyone does it anyway. and im not riding from frome to melksham
