This is a pretty standard spec for a hybrid bicycle. All of the components listed are good in that they all have a proven track record of dependability. They are pretty low grade components but there is nothing wrong with that. They are more work horse components rather than high performance, but most hybrids are meant to be a work horse type bicycle rather than a high performance bicycle. Its like comparing a work truck to a sports car with the hybrid being the work truck.

There is no one feature that jumps out at me saying that any of these components are exceptional by themselves, but all together I would say that they are OK for a hybrid.
