From the URL: "There are 315,000 promotional ‘Repco Bikes’ available, if for any reason the promotional bike stock runs out orders will be substituted with a generic Repco Bike of equal RRP value."

Its $50....hear that $50 (+10 postage)

Being steel I can crash it and bend it back to shape and as for a substitute Repco.......I'm not buying for the brand name. Its going to be a project, I can't wait.

It would cost me most of that to take it to the tip. Why don't you try to get your hands on an old 531 road or track frame?

G'day

You really need to read the fine print. It takes four unique codes plus the $60 to get the bike. You could end up buying a lot of Subway meals to get that "bargin."

I read that as saying that you get one unique code per meal to me. IOW, you only need to buy four meals to be eligible.

Apologies.

Does it come in a 6" or 12" bun version and do you get a choice of white, wholemeal or Italian?

Default Anyone got a spare token?

I have a friend who collected only 3 tokens but the offer has closed.
If you have a spare token, she will put it to good use.
The bike will go to a friend who has changed work location and now has the possibility to ride to work for the first time. Worth encouraging.
You can email me at cycling@nikdow.net
