Pros: good gear range, comfortable ride
Cons: haven't found one yet
"I haven't had this bike very long but have found it to be very comfortable and easy to ride. With 18 gears it just eats the slopes and gets a real turn of speed on the flat. The wheels and front suspension make for a smooth ride even on the lumpy roads left by the winter's snow.
Very pleased at the price and the build quality. It's a real pleasure to get on it, and I find I'm enjoying riding it too much to get off."

"We bought this bike for our sons 12th Birthday.
It's just a fraction too big for him but I'm sure he'll grow a bit more yet.
He is quite comfortable riding it and it's covered in mud already so I think he likes it!"

Pros: good value
Cons: a bit on the heavy side
"Have had this bike for 18 months, great for riding along the beach on rust free alloy wheels, gears and brakes work well. Broke one gear cable on twist grip but guy at Halfords was really helpful and explained on phone how easy it was to repair. I'd give 10/10 for service."

Pros: excellant overall finish
Cons: not great tyres
"The bike is well made in all respects and does not seem to have been manufactured down to meet a price band. Putting it together was easy but more fuller instructions would have been good when adjusting the gears. A good all round bike which looks like it might give a few years service."

Pros: well built, looks great, smooth ride
Cons: assembly wasnt fantastic but it wasnt a problem
"This bike is a real bargain, aside the usual discount bikes sometimes they arent very good but i have to say i am very pleased with the bike and Halfords service is excellent. There were a few tweaks i had to make as i had mine assembled ready to go but thats no problem. I would definatly vouch for Halfords on this product, if you dont want anything too expensive and want something that is reliable and a real good smooth runner for work etc... then buy this you wont be disserpointed."

"This bike is excellent value, how could you go wrong. Order on line pick bike up ready made up for next to nothing. It is not the highest spec bike but very good for cost, frame slightly heavy but hey big deal. I use this bike everyday to cycle to work ( about 3 miles each way) and find it perfect."

"I had been struggling along on my old bike, and thought it was time for a new one. I'm no expert, but to me this one seemed like good value for money. Very happy with it so far, requires much less effort to ride, and everything works well."
