My wife has the one next to it, the Mauve one. She has no problem doing 15 to 20 miles at a steady 14mph on it that is without riding a bike for 6 months, I am certainly not getting her anything quicker.

15.1kg - still interested?

Grow-up, that's no big deal on such a bike, they go along just fine, millions of Europeans can't be wrong.

They aren't meant for racing or anything, and they aren't road bikes. They are for people to enjoy in comfort. Not everyone wants to race and to be honest the weight isn't important.

After my steel, full suss MTB, anything feels lightweight to me!

I was looking about Halfrauds today and some bikes took my interest.
Not the specific bike, but the type....
I could see me out and about shopping on something like this!

I do like the Pendletons, lovely looking bikes and dont seem badly specced for the price.

I wish they had had them in when a friend took his lass in to buy her a bike so they could ride together. Not being a regular cyclist (and forgetting to ask me lol) he and she walked out with this as a result of the salespersons ineptitude in selling them a bike suitable for her:

I mean honestly. The Pendleton is a lovely step through bike, ideal for someone want to potter about as she did but no instead she gets some monstrous impersonation of a MTB which was so badly built/setup the rear wheel locked on their first ride. AFAIK After taking it back (in the car) and getting it fixed its sat in the shed ever since.

I do like Halfords normally but honestly they should be able to sell people the right bike!

What is the Mauve one?
