Is the Sanhema Bike any good?

[bikenerd]

Looking to buy a bike and I’ve found a Sanhema bike for a relatively good price, only thing is is that I’ve never heard of it so opinions?

From what I have gleaned from the Internet they seem to produce cheap Chinese bikes sold main in the far east and on AliExpress, although available in the UK too. They produce many types including folders, road bikes, and MTBs.
Have a look at their description of a road bike. No specs.

As above: avoid. There's a kid who rides a mountain bike version one around here and it looks like it could fall apart at any second.

That’ll be a pile of junk, I wouldn’t go anywhere near it.
If that’s your price point for a bike, shop around on eBay and other market places, and buy a better quality second hand bike.

Whilst any bike that gets you riding is a good thing, you can do so much better.

A terrible entry-level bike can actually put folks off cycling like a cheap guitar deters many beginners: there's a sweet spot in joy-for-money that starts at about the price of a used Triban.
