Yes, I too looked at Learsport, and was taken by the price and running gear. I've been interested in
the Lear 8500 & 9000 for some time now.
So I thought I would try them out, but didn't want to outlay too much so I bought the dual
suspension mountain bike - BW 3000.
I ride to work everyday - I could not be happier!
But a road bike is different somehow - I need to touch it, feel the length, sit and ride the
thing. Have the guy fit it to me, be able to add and subtract bits and pieces, and I can't over
the internet - because they won't allow you to do that. Recently a mate went to one of the shops
either in Sydney or Canberra and said the finished product didn't look that good and was worried
about the frame.
I want someone to buy one and tell us all about it!
So ... yes it looks good but I'm just a little old fashioned and want to play with the thing
before I buy.
