Tell me the good / bad things about this bike and wether i should purchase it !
Thanks alot much appreciated
Pros: Cheap, good-looking
Cons: too cheap
This bike may look cool, but just by looking at the two reviews on the website you can see that it is poorly made. I can't say anything about the components since it is not provided on the website, but I suspect that they will perform very poorly. Don't buy it. If you want more details about how to choose a bike, read on. Otherwise, avoid this bike and look elsewhere.
With a budget of 125 pounds, avoid all full suspension bikes. I would say that "decent" full suspension bikes start at around 1000 American dollars (500 pounds?) new. This is because the extra cost of making the full suspension frame and buying the shock forces the manufacturer to skimp on the rest of the components, which are already cheap due to the low cost of the bike. If you have a low budget, look for mountain bikes with only front suspension. In the US, mountain bikes in bike shops typically start at around $300 (150 pounds). If this is within your budget, definitely buy from the shop because they will ensure the correct fit for you and will adjust the bike for you free for a limited time. Otherwise, you will have to buy online, buy used, or buy at a department store.
Good luck
Edit: Buying online is risky because you don't get to test ride the bike. It is also a hassle to return a bike you don't want. You also don't have people who can adjust it for you if it comes poorly assembled. Buying used gives you the most value for your money, and you can test ride the bike, but it still has some risk involved. Buying at a department store very risky because most likely the "mechanic" doesn't know too much about bikes there, so if the bike is poorly assembled you're out of luck. Also, most department store bikes are not of the best quality.
