  Good Points: Great value for money.Nice disc brakes, handy in traffic.Not too heavy so can lift up stairs at the station.Fairly rugged on roughish ground, taking shortcuts, jumping up kerbs etc.Not too posh so hasn't got nicked yet.

  
  

  Bad Points: Pedals started crunching at about 1500 miles but just needed a strip down and regrease.New chainset needed at 1500 miles but it's a silly double one so I had to replace the front derailleur with a triple at same time (just an extra £12).Seat post sheared off at about 1700 miles but they replaced free of charge as was within 1 year.Rear hub started grinding at 2500 miles and it's non-standard so that was a new wheel at £50.

  
  

  General comments: I've done 3000 miles on my Carrera Subway 2 Mens, all commuting and popping to the shops etc. I live near the beach so it gets a lot of salt and sand, which bikes generally hate, so a tough life for it. I've replaced most of the parts that wear out, like drivetrain and gear cables but it's still going well and I'm pretty happy with it.

  Bought the Carrera Subway 2 Mens yesterday after much research on the net. I wanted a little more speed on the roads, but still maintain the MTB handlebar style. . . enter the subway 2, road and trail bike.
  Like many other reviewers, I wasn't keen on having to buy exclusively from Halfords, mainly due to the fact that its hit and miss as to whether the person serving you knows anything at all about what they are selling you. The guy that served me at New Malden did not even give me the free span ...

  A great hybrid for the value and do not think spec wise their is really anything else comparable. For road use and light tow paths etc it is a delight to ride but anything heavier can be shuddery and uncomfortable so dont be tempted to try. For me this bike has been reliable and other than the earlier afforementioned incident is a solid performing bike. Also comes with Halfords guarantee for frame 15 years and all other components a year which I believe is standard. Well worth the money
