Pros: the gears, the brakes
Cons: the seat it's a killer!
"Good all round bike. Used it on and off the road with no trouble. Also the gears are superb, absolutely effortless. The only bugbear with this bike is the seat, I'd rather be sat on a cactus."

Pros: build quality looks and great value for money!
Cons: brakes tend to loose there edge after a while.
"As a father of 2 children I decided to purchase a new bike so I can enjoy bike rides with the Kids.Not only is the bike fantastic to look at in its white paint job, but also great to ride! I took it round the local park first to get used to it, but after only half an hour I was ready to take it through some woodland trails. The gears are very smooth and very quick to change, also the suspension with the 120mm travel soaks up the worst of the bumps! Very HAPPY!!"

Pros: colour, sturdiness, easy
"This bike has been fine for going around the city, even though the tires are pretty chunky (it's a mountain bike after all). It seems very sturdy. Everything works as it is supposed to.
I've taken it down some steps and up and down kerbs and it's been great; ridden through a bit of mud, but nothing too extreme.
I think it will be perfect for the mix of getting around and low-level mountain biking that I want to do with it."

"Really like the design of this bike. It was almost half price in store. I was looking for a bike for my son's birthday and when I saw such a great offer I couldn't pass it up . The lightest bike I have owned. Easy to ride and comfortable. 10 / 10"

"This is my first bike. It looks attractive in White colour. Built qulity is also sharp and great. I only had it for two weeks now.
Staff at my local store (Barking) was very helpful.
Please note that the Top-tube and Chain-stay tubes are not round on this bike. Top-tube is kind so semi square/round. It may effect the type of accessories you buy in the future. For instance I bought a Wahoo Cadence sensor and it is supplied with round tube fixings. Although it is still quite easy to work around the square tubes but it might not be a case always."

Pros: style spec over all use
"I bought my centos about 2-3 weeks ago and it's at no fault at all.
It's as good off road as its good on road I found that the seat is comfy, brakes are responsive, suspension is a good quality, the wheels and frame look smart as.
If any one is looking for a perfect bike at a perfect price I would highly recommend that that any one should buy this bike while the price is half price like I did
I will be taking my bike to hamsterly forest as I know it's good enough to handle such force
Check it out on you tube (hamsterly transmission) and acceleration"

Pros: looks, performance, off-road
Cons: hard narrow seat, terrible assembly instructions by carrera
"Love it
Bought it today
Took it in a box to be put together at home. This is not the fault of halfords but instead carrera, no I instructions on how to assemble though my common sense prevailed and it turned out right.

That's the rant over
The bike is amazing. Looks are incredible, the white is a superb colour for it and it was easy to wash with a garden hose. Performance this is a flawless bike. Obviously there will be performance mad people out there that will be fussy but I'm a recreational biker and this is the bike for it. Gear shifters are comfortable and accommodated with comfortable handles. First bike with disc brakes and they are very responsive and reliable
Took her for first ride out today that went through a recently plowed field, cobble track, grit roads and main roads. Though as sluggish as any mountain bike can be on Tarmac it compensates for its performance off road, it's wide tires create a perfect performance in mud"
