FANTASTIC VALUE. The bikes worth 1000AUS. Shoes and cleats, mini pump, helmet, speedo, lock every thing as well, an extra 300AUS. I got it for 470AUS. Its 5 months old, but it has literally been left in his house the whole time.
The bike has been performing great, but I'm having trouble getting the presta adaptor plug to work with my air compressor (which has a schrader plug). It doesn't seem that the stick which is supposed to push that valve reaches far enough with the adaptor on, so you can't pump it up, and don't even ask about my experiences pumping up the tires with the minipump. I ended having to go to the bike shop to get the tires inflated enough.
Some pictures are below. ... And yes I do use a stand, and will always use one, even if I get an $8,000 road bike, no matter what people say. Convenience is more important than aesthetics!

As long as the stand is Carbon Fiber then an exception can be made
