Has anyone had any experience with fusion bikes?
I have looked into them on net but not found any reviews regarding the company or their bikes, very cheap so I'm wary...

They use reasonable components; Kenda tyres, Diore Derailleurs, Tektro Drako hydraulic brakes, Shimano Acera SL-M390 shifters but the bike does weigh in at 15kg... 'Retailing' for $600 (RRP $1400) seems way too cheap but the brand is Aussie made so is it a small brand or just a bad cheapy BigW/target style bike? Any opinions please?

Thanks Mark

    Not many Ozzies on here, so doubt you'll get much response, but although that one doesn't look too terrible, no mention of type of shock (fork is mediocre) so I wouldn't expect much
    Their other bikes look like BSOs.

    If you plan on riding off road then forget it.
