The poster did not crap on the thread whereas you. That's what this site is about, and it's a perfectly valid comment to say made in canada may not mean the quality inferred. With so many options, we need to be informed. House brands can be better than name brands often. Their are 'quasi' brand names that sound legit or have legitimate histories but mean little now (INVICTA) Brand names often use their name to sell poor quality items at overinflated prices. Canadians can make good or bad products.

China makes some of the best products in the world. It's surprising to me that so many people on this site still seem to equate Made in China as poorly made and more expensive items or brand name as higher quality. It seems the OP was inferring it could be a higher quality due to being made in Canada and that just may not be the case. PS: 'Made in Canada' means 'something' to a lot of people.įlames fully anticipated. If you don't like what you bought, complain to the manufacturer, don't give out a general statement years after the fact. Triumph Comp Road Bike user reviews : 5 out of 5 - 0 reviews. NOBODY gives a flying F**k WHAT you bought X years ago. If you're slight, intend to use the bike on a recreational basis like riding down the street on straight terrain, you're looking at a lengthier lifespan. Obviously if you're 200+ lbs and ride the bike for more than a few hours everyday, you're looking at a very short lifespan. I think weight and frequency of use are issues here and will affect the wear & tear of the bike.

Last $100 bike I bought, only one component was deemed valuable enough for theft - the seat. IMO, this wouldn't really do well for commuting, as the parts will wear down quickly and it will become a pain in the a$$ to ride.Ī testament to the value of these bikes is what a thief will remove from it, likely the seat.

This is perfect for those people that ride around the block with their kids twice a month. You just can't go wrong with this thing, just check everything has been assembled/tightened properly before you ride one. If I can manage to get a hundred kilometers out of this, definitely worth the investment. I will settle with this though, because I'm impatient and I would like to get in as much riding as I can before the onslaught of Summer. That looks like a decent commuter bike for the price you paid. I think the issue there was poor construction and not a matter of the components, therefore I'll go out on a limb and say not all bikes that are this inexpensive are/will be defective. It was a "Free Spirit" 26", lasted all of a few feet. I do have one of those anecdotal stories of purchasing a bike from Sears (same price as this Raleigh). That's great value & it's great to hear that you're learning bike repair on the go.
