Here's my review of the Hygge Model S so far after about 400km. Overall it's a great bike for the price I paid, and I'm looking forward to putting it through the test over time and over many rides!
Is this the bike from China that will put the big brands to shame? Also how many of these can you buy vs the SL8? For reference the Hygge Model S frame, handlebar, seatpost and small parts came out to roughly $650USD or $900CAD.
