Pros: tyres, weight
Cons: seat
"Great value for money. The bike weight and balance is great, so easy to handle. Smooth ride. Bike tyres are very solid, very impressed with them.
The only negative is the seat, it has very little padding and is very uncomfortable; maybe get a better seat or add a padded cover.
Overall great bike and excellent value for money"

Pros: price
Cons: cheaply made
"As I tend to get my bikes stolen on average every 2 years I have stopped spending money on bikes and have settled for these cheap ones.
It's fine for everyday commuting on roads and is quite light weight with it's alloy frame.
However you just know that there is no quality here as the gears are unreliable and the brakes don't work very well in the wet plus the whole thing has developed creaks and groans after a couple of weeks."

Pros: frame build and design, a good package for a budget buyer
Cons: potentially weak rims
"I wanted a budget to use on local trips and in areas where bike thefts are becoming too common. My ratings are based on the assumption that it would not compare directly with something at least three times more expensive. However I am genuinely impressed with the overall package. The frame in particular is stylish and well made. I suspect the rims are not that strong - but still sufficient for urban use. There was an issue with the gift gear on the freewheel, but this was replaced very efficiently by my local store. Service from the store staff was excellent."
