If you can buy and sell bikes over the next few months I think you'll make some extra money. Right now they are becoming really hard to get with orders taking 2 - 3 months where I'm based.
I find this to be bizarre since bikes don't really go bad or wear out, from over the last 40 years there should be thousands of surplus bikes on the market.
Yes I think it may only be new bike that are harder to get right now. The second hand market may be better.
I had my bike stolen recently so this hits me hard.
Dang sorry to hear that. It's rampant in some places, where I live it's not uncommon to see thiefs brazenly using an angle grinder, in the middle of the day in a crowded place, to remove bike locks.
Any idea why this is?
I think demand is up as people are planning to travel by bike rather than public transport.
