Cycle to work scheme

Yup, I'd talked about doing something similar with some of my LBSes years ago but never went through with it.

I'd planned on using the scheme to buy a mishmash of bits:

• Cheapshit frame (just to make it a complete bike for the purposes of the scheme but useful as a possible turbo trainer bike)
  
• decent front wheel (to swap onto a good bike)
  
• groupset upgrade for another bike (old groupset would go on this bike)
  
• rear wheel built with a PowerTap hub
  
  

In the end I found I could get a better deal biding my time and looking out for deals in the sales.
