Carrera bikes

[gavroche]

what are your views on the carrera bike from Halford at £349.49? ( reduced £100)
I have been to look at it and apart from cheap looking pedals, it looks ok to me.

Er which Carrera bike given it's a brand rather than a model?

I'm guessing it's the tdf limited edition road bike given you mention in your other post that you're after a road bike.

That bike was on the gadget show the other night looked pretty good

Seems to me that your experience with carrera bikes will depend on who its built by. My kraken was pretty good, but be prepared for some fettling with it, either taking it back to halfords, your. local bike shop or just a friend that knows how to tweek it.

The TDF is now down to £299 (online price!)
