Claud Butler Urban 100
I have had this bike for 3 years. It came fitted with front suspension as an extra and I put a suspension seat post in as soon as I got it. Great bike .. I do about 6-9 fast laps of Pitford every week and Rutland water occassionally. Did the C2C in 3 days this summer and it rolled down the last 40 miles a treat. Its never let me down, everything still works OK, including the gears - never had it serviced - it just keeps rolling on. The only job done on the bike is a new rear axle after the C2C - I blame my 15st and too much luggage in the two panniers for that rather than the build quality. Am doing London to Paris on it bext spring. Overall, and as a novice in these matters, I cant fault the bike.

overall, not a bad bike. Its light I can go really fast and it great value for money but I think the pedals look cheap and the gear mechs aren't very good either.

I've had my Urban 100 for ten months. I cycle 35 miles/week and can't access some gears now. The brakes are worn out but rubbing. But a nasty noise from crank when I stand up to pedal is my main concern.

I feel like I paid for the name - but this was the worst bike I ever had!

Really good value for a sub £200 bike, Great fun to ride.
Light bike with good build quality and components. As mentioned elsewhere very low rolling resistance.
Great value and cant think of any bad points.

Great bike.
Nice and Light.
Loads of gears.
With a pair of proper road tires fitted, it's very quick round the city.

Excellent bike for £200 (when I brought mine)
Good strong bike, good for roads in the city as well as urban environments.
Can travel on gravel, small rocks and glass without any problems.
Can go on grass, and down stairs (just don't travel too fast)
Overall great bike :D

Good bike, low rolling resistance. Would recommend to anyone looking for a simple option for commuting, cycling around town etc or along country lanes.
Not for off roading as no suspension

Try servicing it.
