Just seen a second hand one of these, cheap, don't know the year but a fair bit older, maybe 10 years old. Would this be a piece of junk, I think Dawes is a good make, the bike is in one of the New start places and he obviously be professionally services/tuned etc. It takes panniers, just the price and name got me, do you think I could do some serious touring on this?

After a quick google I looks this this bike.

Halford's also have a cheap Hybrid bike down from £229 to £99, here, http://www.halfords.com/cycling/bikes/hybrid-bikes/real-clifton-mens-hybrid-bike-18

What would you go for, between these two?
