This isn't my first choice but I'm glad my husband push me to pay that extra $ over the other vintage bike at Reid. It is light and I feel I'm always in control- which is a huge point as I am a beginner and there are a few hills where I live. I added the front basket and have been using it to store light groceries even though I did it for 'chic' sake originally. Huge thanks to Josh and Matt at the Glebe store. Your patience is much appreciated. All in all money well spent.

I love my new bike!I was thrilled to receive my new Ladies Esprit this week just 2 days after ordering it! I love everything about it. The pale blue colour looks amazing and it rides really smoothly - I'm extremely happy. The seven gears are perfect for my needs. I nice mix of retro cool and zippy transportation gets a big tick from me. And such a good price. Thanks Reid. :)
