what does a simple but decent bicycle cost in a local store near you?

As the saying goes, it depends on what you're looking for: if you're looking for a simple "shoppers" bike to buzz around town, expect to pay about £150/ Euros for one in reasonable condition from a bike dealer knowing it has been fully serviced. However, always check out the private ads: if you're willing to take the risk, I got a 21 gear hybrid with full Shimano set for £100/Euros from a neighbour - it needed some TLC, but I have ridden about 1000 miles on her in two years.

I just brought a simple new bike at a factory outlet for 325 Euro, 150 euro cheaper than on Amazon. Out of 50 to 60 bikes on sale that day that bike was the only only one that was not electric, people are getting lazy lol

I got mine at a public auction sale from the railway company; they sold abandoned bikes. I payed like EUR 20 for my bike. It cost me about EUR 30 to repair it.

Go to a pawn shop. They sell bikes cheap.

A pretty decent one can be around 300-500$

Up to $1000

Probably about $350usd or so.

Around $100
