I have the Courier Race with 700c wheels, rather than the 26 inch ones on the standard Courier, so although similar it's not exactly the same bike.
It's light, it's fast and the components are excellent for the price. I've changed the handlebar as I found the original too flat, but I have nothing bad to say about the bike at all.
Buy it in the sale after christmas, I did and saved £80 on the bike.
