Good afternoon OzBargainers,
First deal post, so go easy on me.
Saw this deal posted a few months ago in the comments section of another deal. Bike seems to have good reviews and is ideal for beginners like myself. I have had shipping to Canberra calculated to be $64.88. The free shipping over $80 policy does not apply as it is a 'bulky item'.
Once you get further into the checkout process and enter delivery details it SHOULD update the pricing accordingly. Mine also showed as $64.88 for ACT region.
My screen shot was after I added the address.
It is very often at that price, close to be a ‘normal price’.
The quality itself is quite poor.
You got one?
Yes, Bought it 5 months ago.
First review is someone whinging about not getting the reflectors that sit in the spokes………
Aren't they a safety feature?
Yes. But would many people notice if they weren't there? or is that the only complaint about the bike…..cos that's a good bike then. :)
cos that's a good bike then.
Agree. Pedals are included too…
There is the 'drop bar' version of the bike at the same price here: https://decathlon.com.au/products/triban-100-road-bike-15207…
I bought one last week and really like it. It's perfect for casual riding with your kids etc. First service included for free, no idea what that is really worth.
With one chainring at the front the range of gears will be limited. I use all the gears on 3x7 gear bikes.
Get fitter. Haven't shifted my front gear in 5 years.
Me neither.
Nor my rear gear.
My bike has just sat there in the shed.
Well you need the front low gear for steep hill and high gear for higher speed. You don't need all 21 gears but they are good to have.
Really depends on how they have set up the gearing. For its intended use a 1x7 should be fine.
Probably better to get a shimano 1x7 than an unbranded 3x7 that is never changes right.
All those boys riding Le Tour have got some work to do then… I notice they've got a couple of sprockets up front
They need to get fit.
Not sure if these can still be found but they are/were a great deal when i got one. (had to call them to buy as i couldn't select size online, might all be gone now)

3x9 shimano gears, Hydraulic disks and reasonable front suspension.
Worth mentioning if you pick up in store they come assembled at no extra charge.
