TightwadsThere's saving money, and there's being tight: saving money at the expense of other people, or simply for the miserly hell of it.
Tell us about measures that go beyond simple belt tightening into the realms of Mr Scrooge.

Im interested.What has a £2k bike got that a £100 bike doesnt?
P.S. Do you sell fold up bikes? I need one badly!

A £100 bikeWill be made of low grade steel or aluminium and will be weaker and heavier than a more expensive bike. It'll have no damping in the suspension - imagine riding a pogo stick. It won't have hydraulic brakes, nor will it have been thoroughly tested and meet various international standards.
Believe me, there's a gulf of difference between a £100 bike and even a £400 bike.
