Hi although not new to cycling, I cycle on the dark side, my knowledge of what goes on in the roadie world is very limited. I would value any opinions on this item I found on Fleabay. Seems a bit of a bargain all I can find on the web is that they were a Japanese manufacturer who went out of business under dubious circumstances.

I only want it as a training tool to help with the mtbing so don't want to spend a fortune.

    It's a rubbish bike and the parts won't last long. Things like hubs, bottom bracket, headset bearings, rims, tyres, etc. The ride will be bad too. Better to get a decent secondhand bike for the price.
