Hi there,
I am a nurse and I am looking for a cheap or free mens bike for a client of mine who is disabled. He still rides a bike and someone stole it from him recently. My client is a beneficiary and can't afford much. Ideally he needs a bike with wide tires (mountain bike) for stability.

Can anyone help?

I had a bike to re-home and checking the prices on MarketPlace, decided to offer it for free. I was inundated within minutes and had to reply to many enquiries.

I was inundated within minutes and had to reply to many enquiries. Obviously, there a great need for free bikes so if you've been meaning to get rid of your excess bikes, plenty of people want them. Probably easier to leave them in a bike rack with a *free" sign on them to save your time.
