jon v8 Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Thats an easy one to answer,I spent months looking for a rigid Ajay,found nothing worth buying and I wasnt fussy about price.I just wanted a sorted bike to ride.The only offer I had was for a rigid that was so smart I wouldnt have dared get it muddy,it had all the original bits on it and was 100% in every way. I mentioned my frustration at a club meeting and afterwards I was offered an HT5 that was mostly sorted - I bought it at asking price,it was a good offer.Since buying it the mag has decided to pack up and I'm converting it to an Electrex electronic unit on the end of the crank.As soon as its done I'll be out on it. What I'm sayiong is that there are not many big bangers on offer that you can just buy and ride - I gave up on the rigid,but the Ariel is lovely to ride.Good luck !
