    Need some advice please all

    I keep my bike outdoors at the moment and as a result the cold weather has killed the battery. Can anyone recommend where I go for a new one in Swindon as cash is a bit tight but need to get the bike back up and running?

    Cheers

    Or borrow an optimate off someone as it maybe recoverable
    Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

    Tried the Optimate but it's dead. I'll have a wander round today and see who's cheapest as I can get one off fleabay for just over £30 but don't want to wait.

    Thanks peeps [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

    Bristol Batts will also make Batts up to order, so if you have a none standard Batt for a toy or a drill they will make it up....
