I have never heard of Indigo Bikes before so had to look them up. Looks like they are quite a new brand.

The spec looks quite good to me and I'd expect it to be a decent bike. Obviously, I couldn't say what it'll be like to live with long term.

The price shown on their website is a penny shy of £600 so it's up against some strong competitors in the £500 to £600 price range.
