Back in the day pretty much all of my peers started out with a Trigger's Broom bike then changed kit if/when we could afford it. The frame looks to have a decent modern geometry which is IME far more important than anything else for somebody starting out. OK, I don't go a bundle on that sort of gear levers but I'd not have been ashamed to ride that on club runs in my younger days.
