My wife owns a Giant Cypress and likes it a lot, hers is about 6 years old and still looks like new, maybe because she hasn't ridden it much. In my opinion it is a very nice ride, rolls well and is very well made.
When she has ridden it, it has been mostly on bike paths and I notice she gets a better roll out of it than I get on my Trek mountain bike. Billed as a hybrid, it moves much faster.
