Additional items in the monthly trial...
Why order this bike: if you think you will be cycling fairly regularly this is a lovely hybrid bike to use. A bike that works for local rides, commuting and longer social rides. The frame is made from aluminium so the bike weighs in at just 14.5kg. It comes with good quality Schwalbe tyres that reduce the chance of punctures and a comfortable seat. It has six gears which covers most terrains but if you live in a very hilly area you might want to select a bike with more gears.
What you get for your monthly fee: the bike comes with rechargeable lights, a gold rated lock, mudguards and a helmet. You can select more accessories for an additional monthly fee.
