Just an FYI. Giant's number system is backwards. Thus, the Rapid 0 is not the basic model, but rather top of the line. The basic model of that line would be the Rapid 2 at £699. Just quickly perusing the Giant line of hybrids in the UK, another one to consider if you want a hybrid is the Giant Escape 1 at £499. If you can live without disc brakes, this bike is a good deal, if it fits you.
