Bought the Triban Trail 7 and a Coyote Nevada to add to my 1970's Dawes tourer. On paper it has lower specs than the Nevada and was £70 cheaper. It also felt a little heavy, but this is to be expected with all the kit. This is the default bike that I turn to when I think about going for a ride. It is the only bike I have ever owned that is maintenance-free after five months of decent mileage. The gearing is solid and smooth (the only underperformer is the front shifter which could do with upgrading to SRAM X4 or 5).
The bike comes with everything you would need to do a daily commute bar the bags and is outstanding value for money.
