  • Sorry ed, I don't understand what you mean.

    Just looking for a value for money utility bike for work. I came across this and asked if anyone knew the brand. Tbf it is a lot of good quality components for the money.

    Some have suggested that I buy a bike of a similar price and start to add bits such as Dynamo, rack and guards. Which makes no sense whatsoever as it'll take the whole package price a few hundred quid above the price of the bike I've come across, plus the hassle.

    I didn't realise I'd offended people to the point of being ignored, this actually tickles me a little bit.

  • Sorry ed, I don't understand what you mean.

    Basically it's a kind of bicycle that appeal to non cyclists.

    What I meant is that if you're not fussed in the slightest with how that kind of bike ride, in that case go for it.

  • Anyone that buys and then uses a bike, automatically becomes a cyclist. They may not be YOUR kind of cyclist, but a cyclist is what they are. I'm not a bit interested in speed, buying what everyone else buys or looking like any particular type of cyclist. I cycle more than some people use their cars, but I don't race, I don't wear lycra and I have no idea whether or not I am 'fashionable'. I don't ride 'fashionable' bikes and I haven't got disc brakes. What I have got, is an arthritic back, type 1 diabetes and a love of functional bikes which are built by me to suit my needs. Oh, and I am a cyclist, I ride a cycle.
