Bike for mrs lozcs

[lozcs]

She wants hybrid, road / canal path / disused railway lines leisure cycling only with kids mostly...

More Road bike looks than MTB - ie no suspension

Would prefer to use LBS but limited range (Frome and Raleigh)

Budget £500

This perhaps?

Looks decent, other than the colour. Soooo dull looking IMO

I also like a carbon fork but hard to find for that budget and disc brakes. Does she need the discs?
