Just bought this bike from halfords "Apollo FS.26 17" Mens Full Suspension Mountain Bike" , I have read other reviews on here and was worried about it, when I seen the price had come down to £139.99 I jumped at it, and am glad I have for that price I know I can't go wrong with it.
I will be using the bike to get to & from work 6 miles return journey each day, this bike is excellent for this price, I have used it twice and happy so far with it, brakes are really good, suspension is great, the gears change really quick and easy it is a really good ride & very light too, like someone says "am not going to climb everest with it.
This is the ideal bike to get started with at this price if your thinking of getting in to this sport what you got to lose, plus you get a free service after six weeks, I have bought the Haynes bike book to teach my self more about repairing bikes myself, so with the money I saved on this bike and the help from the book am on to a winner.

I found this review very helpful because... I have just this morning, ordered this bike to enable me to ride our local track with my 10 year grandson. The track is easy and the review was very re-assuring. The price has fallen again and I took advantage of the 3 year warranty package. I collect tomorrow and feel that at the price that I have paid I know what to expect. Finally, I always find the staff in Halfords to be really helpful.
