I have been cycling with a bloke who's riding one of them from clapham to st Paul (rode all way with him)
The bike is frankly, perfectly fine, the key here is that this isn't a bike that's design for speed, all the way from clapham, he appear fine, comfortable and in control (he's about 50, and doesn't appear to be fit), after a brief chat with him, we come to the conclusion that the bike is more than enough if you relax and take it easy the weight seemed to be on par with a typical Dutch bike.
If he, a normal 50 something bloke can ride it from clapham to st Paul without much effort, so can anyone.
