    Cheap and safe?

    I am looking for a fairly cheap road bike that is going to be safe enough to talk mum into letting me get my licence. She is fine with me racing bikes in Buckets and 150 streetstock but isnt keen on me being on the road, due to dads early days. Does anyone have any ideas???

    GN250. Couldnt be cheaper, couldnnt be safer. Others will say that the lack of power and dangerous handling is unsafe, but thats a load of bull.

    Just make sure it doesnt have stock tyres and its sweet as

    Because on the road, all it takes is for one fuckwit to not see you and that's it. Riding on a track with controlled conditions is another thing.
