When we arrived in Lagos firstly, a few years ago, we were frantic looking for bikes but there wasn't any 2nd hand bikes for sale and the new ones  were very expensive. Then we went over to Decathlon in Portimao and - Voila - we got two new, terrific bikes, complete with stands etc for about €400.

That was then this is now..............

I reckon when someone does sell second hand bikes they get snapped up quickly. Places like Continente sell bikes for about 200e too.

Your 100% correct, I ended up buying two new unisex bikes with helmets,pump in Continente for €320 in total so happy with, not so sure about the quality but fine for local town cycling which is what I want them for.
