I can't get a new bike. Only used... What do I do?

Post by WishBear2001 »

Should I have a spraypainter paint an old one to look like a cloud bike (look at username ^_^) or an 80's toon bike?

Unless you can get someone to do it free of charge, you're better off trying to find a used bike that looks almost new. Plenty of people sell bikes at yardsales that look near brandnew and was well taken care of.

Trust me, people sell all sorts of stuff. It just takes patience and looking. Classifieds and such also help. We just sold a bunch of various bikes at yardsales this summer, from kids to adults and all were looking brandnew and well taken care of. We also have a paper in this area called the "Valley Trader". People list ads for things they want to sell. Buying used is often a game of looking and waiting. Unlike buying a new bike, buying a used bike takes a little more time because you have to search for the right one.
