Many of the bikes that the delivery drivers use are cheaper Chinese models like Starsfly. EFF bikes are also popular.
The issue with cheaper bikes is that they are too heavy so aren’t that agile.
Look for an aluminium frame and check the bike overall weight. After you hit about 20kg it becomes a monster and is a nightmare if you live upstairs in a flat. Getting on and off trains is also a chore.
There are many more brands of decent bikes other than Halfords own Carrera stuff. |
