Moda bikes

[Boyfrom64]

Firstly I am interested to hear any reviews from anyone who has a Moda bike, how they handle, how well they are likely to stack up with year round riding.

I am quite interested in the Prima, which has an aluminium frame but with carbon forks and rear.

Pretty much the same as any other half decent bike.......... basically.

@ZaksDad has a Moda bike he seems to go pretty well on it.

I have a Moda Stretto, it's a carbon frame, so not sure if my tips will help.
Basically, they are very well made bikes, hand made in the UK. I find mine responsive, fast and light. The gear that came with mine is highly recommended from the brake set, american classic wheels, to the seat. The only thing that went 'wrong' on mine was the SRM gearset which developed faults and had to be replaced. I chose to go with Ultegra rather than SRAM again, but other than that, I've been very impressed it.
Looks good too, and I often get complimented on it

Thanks for the feedback ZaksDad. Do you have any pictures of your bike you can share?

@ ZaksDad, that is one really nice looking bike and only increases my appetite to go and try one.

I have a Moda track bike, very happy with it. I dont know much about their geared range but for the price the frame geometry was ideal for what i was wanting and the wheelset made it pretty good value for money (£500+ wheels on a sub £1000 bike!)

The more I look in to Moda bikes the more I like them.

Hi, also use a Moda stretto for the commute when I can, love the ride and always surprised by the lightness....but my other bike is a Dahon matrix with pannier rack hence the shock at its weight lol

A mates getting the Moda Stretto, I must admit I don't know much about them but the reviews were very positive when I googled it, 'a near superbke' I think was the BRadar quote.
