For me, the lack of any useful info and abundance of marketing bs in the specs are a red flag. For example:
"FRAME: Aphelion Signature Series. Made from steel. Modelled from the first ever Aphelion. Built with lugs to add strength and stability"
Lugs to add strength and stability? Obviously false and bs.
It also weighs near 11kg, so it's just ordinary steel with parts that will probably wear out in a year or so.
TL;DR, I wouldn't spend £490 on it. I'd buy something like this Fuji for £299... https://www.wiggle.co.uk/fuji-declaration-urban-bike-2020
I like the purple.

“The fixed gear ratio of 46t -16t is perfectly balanced to pick up speed without the stiffness to power it” 🤔

Does anyone have anything good or bad to say about Aphelion Cycles? Does anyone know anything about them?
One of my daughters is thinking of buying this:

And I have to say it looks rather nice.
