Advantages: fast, light, high spec for cheap price Disadvantages: None
of the Shimano flightdeck cycle computer which has the added advantage of showing cadence.
Most bikes in this class have lower spec Sora gear shifters (where one is a lever and the other a button).
Chain ring
************
The Trek has a Bontrager Select crankset with 53-39 chainrings. This means that it is a double chain ring instead of a triple.
A triple chain ring = more gears which (according to the forums) is better for beginners as the extra number of gears should mean that the rider should always be able to find a gear which s/he can easily spin (i.e rotate without getting too tired too quickly and build up lactic acid in the muscles).
