A larger number of gears makes climbing hills even easier as well as helping you find the right gear when you need it. The Carrera memory foam saddle allows you to stay cycling comfortably for longer. And, if you're really upping your cycling game, the mechanical disc brakes give you consistency, rain or shine.

Take your pick from a vibrant red or cool blue paint finish. To give you even more riding time and not have you standing idle we're also giving you more peace of mind by fitting 'Carrera Puncture Protection' tyres as standard which include an additional layer of puncture resistant material running around the tyre which will help reduce the incidence of punctures. The Carrera Crossfire 2 is also comfortable to ride on varying surfaces thanks to the Suntour front suspension forks.

With 75mm of travel, they do a great job of absorbing bumps and obstacles giving you more control and confidence. The suspension can also be dampened to help maintain faster speeds on smooth surfaces. Get reliable and consistent braking every time thanks to the powerful Tektro mechanical disc brakes, perfect for controlling your bike on descents or stopping quickly on busy roads or cycle lanes.

Weighing in at 15kg, the Carrera Crossfire 2's lightweight aluminium frame does a great job of keeping the bike's overall weight down, helping you to cycle further for longer. With the flat handlebars and upright sitting position you're able to maintain great visibility of the road ahead plus the frames come in three sizes making it easier to find the right bike for you.

Carrera Bikes

This bike was manufactured by Carrera, a well known brand of bikes sold by Halfords. Carrera are one of the most popular UK bike brands, and offer ranges of mountain bikes, road bikes, hybrids, folding bikes, kids bikes and more recently E-Bikes. Carrera bikes are known for their exceptional value, and are largely priced under £600, making them both accessible and appealing to the British public.

Carrera Crossfire Bikes

Carrera Crossfire are a range of alloy hybrid bikes with front suspension, featuring 7 or 8 Speed Tourney Groupsets, Triple Chainsets, Disc or V-Brakes and 700c wheels, for sale between £300 and £400. Essentially Carrera Crossfire bikes are short travel hybrid bikes which are designed for riding on roads, with the odd gentle off-road excursion on canal paths, bridleways and the like. They're a good all-rounder for newcomers to cycling, with enough suspension to take the edge off small bumps, but not suitable for big jumps or rough off-road riding. The large 700c wheels will be fast rolling, and the triple chainset will help get you up even the steepest of climbs. There are models with V Brakes and Disc in this range, and if your budget will stretch then I would recommend upgrading to the latter for the increased stopping power.
