Expirience with the Polygon SISKIU D5

Ludwig Döhl You love to ride your bike tours with lots of high meters? Then the SISKIU D5 and you could become friends. With its balanced handling, riding the Polygon Downcountry-Bike feels really intuitive. The seating position does not manage to be too athletic, nor too upright. It´s moderate character is likely to suite the vast majority of bikers. In the price range under 1500 Euro, other manufacturers tend to install higher quality shifting systems. Especially for light riders under 70 kilos, the weight of this bike is enormous. With 16,7 kg, the ratio of rider to bike weight could be lighter. A good argument for the SISKIU D5: Such a successful geometry is usually only available if you have deep pockets. The guarantee promise of 5 years ensures trust.
