Hi All,

I want to buy a bike that I can use mainly to increase my fitness. Since having some back problems, don't want to go for typical racer/road bike, and hybrid seems like a good compromise.

I'm down to 2 candidates for my purchase - Giant Rapid 2 and Lapierre Urban Shaper 600. Bikes quite similar, same price, etc., however with few differences (Giant closer to a road bike, Lapierre to mtb).

Has anyone had any experience with these two?

Thanks
