that seems a good lot of bike for the money, get some mudguards maybe a low rider, further down the road upgrade the brakes?

For £100 more get you a GT Grade;

friend of mine is after a bike for commuting on, gears she has said is essential (wants to do the occasional long ride), and preferably with rack mounts. I know I could find her something better on here, which would be my preference, but time etc so forth..
anyone got any views on these holdsworths on planet X:
ticks all boxes, has disc brakes, and from what I've shown her so far the only bikes she has liked are steel frames.
how wrong can you go for £500?? Steel frame, Sora, and disc brakes, new. Seems like a bargain to me.
