Carrera TDF Road Bike 2011/2012 - Medium 54cm 4.4 5 82 82
Nice starter bike I spent a while looking around for a road bike to replace my 20 year old mountain bike and have found this and all round good starter bike if like me you didn't want to pay silly money for a bike. (although I have noticed an significant increase in the price of the bike since I purchased mine back in August 2012) As with a few other reviews I had quite a few punctures with the bike and on one occasion 3 in the space of about 5 miles. However since replacing the tyres I have had no more problems and just changing the tyres made the ride feel a lot smoother and even a little faster. The brakes are a little un-responsive especially at higher speeds so changing the break pads is also something I would recommend. If like me your a novice road biker who wants to get out and exercise more at the weekend and a few mornings/ evenings and don't want to pay a lot of money for a bike then i would recommend this bike. 25 April 2013

carrera road bike Really pleased with my puchase .Weather and time constraints have limited my opportunties to use as frequently s I would have liked ,but initial thoughts are reasoable value 12 February 2013
Mellow yellow My wife bought me a TDF for Christmas,its a bit of a quantum leap for me as my other bikes are 1960's 3 speeds.This leaves the problem of having nothing to compare it to,so it'll be judged on its own merrits.We'll start with the not so good points,firstly and worstly are the pedals,321 in the bin and replaced with some MKS quills,loads better.Lots of people say the gearing is a little 'tall'but for me a good spread of 16 gears is just fantastic,i'm undecided about the seat,i may just need to get used to it but i go a bit numb after an hour or so.Another issue i have found is the shimano mechs dont like rock salt very much,after a couple of rides on frosty mornings after the gritters have been out both mechs have nasty black patches and the nuts and bolts on the brake calipers have gone rusty,i'm a bit dissappointed about this as i look after my bikes with lots of gt85 and polish.Right then good points,firstly it just looks gorgeous,yellow and black a classic combo.The brakes,i was a bit surprised just how good they work,we've got some pretty steep hills in Cornwall and i haven't scared myself in the stopping dept yet.The gears worked very smoothly after i spent a few minutes making adjustments,i'm sure Halfords would have done this if i had taken it back but as i said it was just a few adjustments.I did take advantage of the 6 week check over,the staff were very helpfull and capable,they gave the wheels a true and made other adjustments and checks.Overall i find the TDF Fast,good looking and well built and would recommend it to anyone starting out in road riding. 18 March 2013
First road bike but no without its floors. I bought the tdf as my first road bike to move up from a ten year old full suspension mountain bike. First thoughts were pretty good, built up easily and went for the first ride. Now I live in Northumberland so we have lovely flat rides, up hill and rough roads, so the first thing I changed was the seat! To a charge, which helped no end! Secondly the brakes are atrocious in standard form. Once you get this thing would up to 40mph downhill, don't expect to stop quickly! I replaced these for a better brand of brake pads, which transformed the brakes, much sharper and fill you with confidence! Up hill steep sections are a problem if your not used to the high gears on this bike and even seasonal cyclists have complained about the awkward gearing. I eventually changed the main sprocket for a compact gear set which has helped no end! The next thing on the list is to replace the handle bar tape with something more comfortable, maybe a prologo set. Generally I think this bike is very good , but to make it a decent long distance bike you need to make a few sensible changes! 09 March 2013
Carrera T D F Bike. This bike is excellent value for the price, specification and quality of some of the parts could be better, I.e. the appalling peddles and saddle and the quality of the tyres. The first thing that I did was to buy some quality tyres, an expense that I did not expect when purchasing a new bike. 19 January 2013
