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.

All in all, a good bike for you money. So far, been so good ...
Advantages: Solid frame, very good brakes and smooth gears. Disadvantages: Tyres are too chunky for road riding, if thats what your into.
This bike is ideal for anybody looking to do any sort of offroading. It is well equipped with tektro auriga hydraulic disk brakes which are silky smooth and have plenty of braking power. The great thing about the GT is that it has a lock-out on the forks which makes riding on roads a bit easier. I find this useful as i commute on it. I chose a mountain bike because i prefered the riding position and the fact i can take it off-road if i so choose. The tyres that come on the bike are chunky enough for off roading but for road riding they have a fair bit of rolling resistance, i swapped mine over for a set of semi-slicks for road riding. This bike is well worth buying and i would reccomend it to anybody. ...
Advantages: wide range of cars and classes, smooth animation, playability Disadvantages: need a good performance PC, online idioits, hard to play with keyboard

Installing
The game comes on DVD-ROM so you will need a DVD-Rom drive to install it, also a decent sixed hard drive with empty storage available, although unlike GTL there is only one copy protection code so it makes things slightly easier. The manual explains how to install, but if you have installed games before, this should be "old hat" by now.
Like most modern racing sims, you will need a decent graphics card to get the best out of this, infact the game may not play at all if your system specifications are too low.
Also one the game is installed, I would recommend ...
