New bike advice

[teaboy5]

Hey All

I am after a new bike and wouldn't mind some advice, as I haven't owned one since i was a kid!

I was looking for some kind of hybrid bike that can be used on the road but if needs be I can take it off road a little with a change of tyres.

I only want to spend around 200-300 as I only want to use it to get a little fitter.

Is there anything knocking about the site with an "H" in it that I can at least go see and buy there or else were online if it's cheaper.

Well by off road i mean, country roads tbh. I wont be flying down no hills.

I dont like the look of some of the road bikes to be honest, I like the normal handle bars compared to the shape of the most road going bikes, so thats why i thought a hybird would suit me better.

Hey sorry to bring this up again, but I didn't get one at the time as i was busy with other things.

I went and looked a one today which was a trek 7 2 FX i think, i forgot to note the model down.

I had also forgot work do the cycle to work shceme , so I can get 46% off the price listed in the shop which is £400 (have seen it online cheaper already)

Anyone got any opinions on the bike bearing it mind it will just be used to get fitter and lose some weight.
