Any bike shops in SJPDP?

Time of past OR future Camino
Planned: 2023 July-August
Greetings, everyone!
I am planning to cycle the French route in July/August 2023 from St Jean to Santiago, maybe to Muxia. It would be quite difficult to ship my bike from home and I find bike rentals quite expensive. I thought I may buy a cheap MTB in St. Jean and sell/donate it in Santiago. Do you know any second hand or cheap bike stores in or around St. Jean?
Alternatively, I may walk to Pamplona and get a bike there, I found a good second hand bike shop there...
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Yo, Tinker have you found the secret track line in the Harry Potter novels? Godgle, it must be something special or just a secret for pilgrims.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
Quel est votre budget ?
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
I'm flying with my bike from Canada to London; the bike costs an extra C$50. (I presume flying to France would be similar in cost, but I have family to visit in the UK) I'll set off for my camino, riding from London, in early April. I'd rather have the 'hassle' of packing the bike and the small extra charge (which you could easily eat up looking for a suitable bike, not to mention the time spent) to have a bike I know is suited to the task and that I have toured on before. This is not an answer to your question but may be worthy of consideration. Also, I have flown across the Atlantic with a bike half a dozen times and also three times from London to Delhi, plus a few other shorter trips, and never had a bike-related issue.
