2R Manufaktur TRS27

Where it stands

Priced below the market rate for its equipment, but another bike in its price range is priced further below it in the sizes where both are in stock. That is the only reason it is not the 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.
• Wheels not identified from the listing, so we scored them level with basic aluminium rather than guess.
• 16.8 kg, on the heavy side for a city bike; the ranking's reference weight is 16.2 kg.
