kind of a difficult question to answer, but is it worth £160 (about $320)... thanks in advance...

Answer 1

SWEET! that bike is awesome! 7 speed...(which is really good), *shiny* (haha), BUT you might want to think twice about it because of the price...its a pretty big number! Also it matters how much you ride...so if you dont do much riding then no....but if you ride as a hobby then why not! (if you have the money)

Answer 2

please don't take this answer personally, but anytime an on-line bicycle buyer asks: is this a good bicycle? a little red flag goes up! I don't recomend on-line purchases to novice cyclists. you need to be properly fitted to your bike! you can't do this on-line. also, this bike takes the "one-size-fits-all" approach. one size does not fit all in cycling! in fact, it leads to painful injuries. please go to your local bike shop! they will fit you properly, and to a bike that suits the type of riding you're into. you'll probably end up with a lot more bike, for not much more money. as noted in the previous answer, factor the cost of shipping and completing the assembly.

Answer 3

you will have to pay for shipping and for final assembly and adjustments.... these things will cost over $100. .... and then warranty issues.

for your money, go to a bricks and mortar store.

Answer 4

I'd keep looking .... no way I'd dish out that kinda coin for that bike.   Your first clue is the 'shiny', flashy look.   And anytime you dont see a model number/style and instead see 'alloy', you know you are dealing with cheapola.

Answer 5

One thing that bothers me, Is it's description as a 'Hybrid' !!!!!

The Front suspension puts it in some sort of 'off road' category - although its pretty suitable for road use.  

As a casual type bike, it's OK but I would be tempted to look around further!.

Best of luck.
