Where it stands

Priced close to what German shops charge for this level of equipment, so it does not clear the margin we require before naming a pick.

The compromises

• 9-speed drivetrain, fewer gears than the 11- and 12-speed groupsets on most city bikes.
• Mixed groupset: not every component is Shimano Altus.
• Basic aluminium wheels.
• 17.4 kg, on the heavy side for a city bike; the ranking's reference weight is 16.2 kg.

Where to buy

Other shops list what looks like this bike, but we cannot confirm it is the same build, because the model year or drivetrain is not settled, so we do not compare their prices.
