Advantages: Light, nice ride, good brakes
Disadvantages: Chain should have shield,brakes bit squeeky,only availible from halfords

...I brought this as my last bike, a saracen, died on me, it was really in a terrible mess! I brought this for £400 in Halfords, which is a pretty good deal for what you get. The technician was very helpful in there, otherwise I probably would have brought a bike from a Local Bike Store. So, what do you get for your £400 here? Well, a light and strong bike, with hyrdaulics, 24 gears, thick tyres, nice wheels with strong spokes.

Delivery was prompt although outside the advertised next 2 day schedule. The bike features a Chromoly frame, as advertised on the dealers web site, not Aluminuim as advertised on the GT web site. That slight dissapointment the frame is very good, the triple triangle design being a GT trademark and as an engineer I can see it's advantages. The Drivetrain is all Shimano as you may expect, the surprise for a relitivly cheap bike is that it is mainly the Atlus range, with only a few components being from the Acera range. There are 24 gears, which sounds a lot but if you use the bike on road as well as off you will rarely use the lower 16! The bike came with RST forks, 381 CL... Read review
