Riverside 900, 10-Speed Hybrid Bike

The bike (Riverside 900) is very good. It is nice for long and short rides and gives more comfort and ease. The gear shift is great too. Easy to fit accessories.

I have little experience of bikes but seems to be a good bike. The only issue being some squeaking already just after just 3 or 4 weeks. I have done some asking around and apparently this is common with disc brakes and relatively easily fixed. I wouldn't have though it would happen so quickly though. There was no offer from decathlon to service the bike after a few weeks like some of the other shops so will either fix it myself or take it back to the shop.

using it for couple of weeks , haven't seen anything wrong.

Today it is July 18. I bought this bike on July 16 from Decathlon store Ealing Broadway. I rode the bike hardly for 5 Miles and while crossing the main road the left pedal broke suddenly and fell on the road. I was lucky that there was no fast moving vehicle. I tried fixing it myself but inner spiral grooves that fix the pedal to its arm were worn out. I had to walk back 3 Miles with broken pedal in hand. Now I have to go back to the store, wait in their long queue to get it fixed. The bike also makes squeaky noises intermittently. PS: I wish I could share the images with this review.

Very good for the price

Very Good

Not having bought a bike in the past 20 years was somewhat bewildering when choosing a new one. However, Jon at the Team Valley (UK) Decathlon store did a great job helping me choose this bike. It's ideal for my needs and well made. I also bought some mudguards & a centre stand that were fitted in store. I'm very happy with my purchase and customer service. Thanks !

I bought my Riverside 900 yesterday and I directly drove home from there. It was about 50 minutes ride and I did not feel any discomfort during the drive or post the drive. This bike is truly built for leisure + long rides. I went to the store relative late on the Sunday and Artur promptly helped me in choosing right bike, right size and right accessories. He quickly checked and found that the bike I wanted was available in the inventory. He built it in minutes and also installed the accessories for me. Even during the self check out, the attendant there helped me out with auto scanner and check out process. Thanks a lot Decathlon Uxbridge and I look forward to many more rides. Regards, KK

Overall this is a decent bike, nice and lightweight, comfortable. Main complaint is that it does not have enough gears with only 10 available and these are all low/easy ones. Even the 10th gear is not high/hard enough and I spend most of the time in this gear, never using anything below 5th. For a hybrid bike it desperately needs higher gears for faster cycling on flats and downhills. Would not have purchased in hindsight.

Well built bike Gear change easy/smooth Good handling on the road/rough terrain Overall very pleased with the product and service

A good all rounder - I used this to build strength over several months then tackle a 500km ride mostly off road, over 4 days. My only real gripe is the top gear wasn’t great for distance riding. I’ve upgraded the chainring twice now - first from a 34T to a 38T (the largest available at Decathlon) and now to a 46T universal chainring. Average speed was over 2kph faster on first ride. All in all, a good all rounder and good value for money.

i recommend it.
