Firefox Avalon V 700C - Review

The Avalon V 7C features a low-height hardtail steel frame, ideal for female riders. The tubular frame and steel rigid fork provide stability, although the lack of suspension means riders might feel bumps on rougher roads. The bike's hybrid design ensures low pedaling force, allowing for faster speeds with less effort. Additionally, the wide pedals enhance comfort, while the side stand's placement ensures balanced weight distribution, although it can interfere with pedaling when in use.

The single-speed drivetrain of the Avalon V 7C includes an AW 38TX17MM PXT FORCE 1 crankset and a chain guard with a chain wheel. This setup requires minimal pedaling power, allowing riders to achieve faster speeds with less effort. The simple gearing system is ideal for urban commutes, providing reliable and easy maintece.

The feminine design of the Avalon V 7C is highlighted by its dark red frame with branding stickers and black parts. The contrasting color combination, including the steel-colored chain, adds a unique aesthetic appeal. The bike's design is both visually pleasing and functional, ensuring decent road presence and a stylish look.

The steel V-brakes on the Avalon V 7C are responsive, providing reliable stopping power. However, the brake pads can wear out over time, reducing their effectiveness. The bike features soft, silver-colored brake levers, which add a touch of elegance. The handlebar, measuring 58 cm with a 2 cm rise, feels small and may not be comfortable for all riders, particularly men. The steering is functional but can feel stiff at times.

The Avalon V 7C is equipped with hybrid-style wheels, featuring 7 x 3.5 cm tires that offer excellent traction without slipping. The alloy double-walled rims with silver reflectors are beneficial for night rides. The saddle is comfortable for short commutes, supported by an alloy seatpost (205.4x1.4x34mm), ensuring a stable and pleasant riding experience.
