  • 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.

    Grateful for any thoughts or other recommendations

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