I'm thinking that it would be handy if it could handle a little bit of offroading, so the modern one would be the sensible choice, but the leather seat and handgrips on the old style one are luring me in.

Top one, no contest.

 Top looks a bit flimsy to me for off roading....you need something more like this.

How much have you got to spend? What will you use it for primarily?

Do they both have room for your wicker basket to go on the front?

Definitely old school, looks so much classier.

Have they got a bike rack at the Kassam?

Have they got a bike rack at the Kassam?

You'd have thought so, to enable all those students to attend matches.

top one is reduced to £185 from £250, so I wouldn't want to spend any more than £200. I'll use it mainly on roads but like I say, would definitely need to keep the option of rougher terrain open.

Students? There's probably about 50 students max at any OUFC game. Town and gown don't mix round ere

bought the top one, the modern one. slightly lamenting passing up the upright riding posture and leather handlebar grips and seat of the old looking one though.
