uglier than a faux fully suspended 18 gear thing that it would compete against (on price) ?
This bike would be a far better bet for people wishing to only spend £80 I would think and the only ugliness to worry about is on the potential riders mismatched tracksuit ensemble :-)
My brother bought just himself a full-sus BSO for under 120 notes, off a catelogue. I said I would have bought something like this Nexus geared jobbie.......
.....I get the impression he thought I was mad for wanting to spend twice as much, for a cheap looking bike with no 'features'. Fat tyres, big red rear sus springs, disc brakes, flashy wite sus forks, all sell bikes it appears.
