Finally decided what I wanted.

Specialized Allez Triple, 54cm (œ529.99)

Went to LBS to order, but there are none left[B)]

BUT.

The Allez Sport with Tiagra instead of Sora and a few other bits is avaliable for œ599, instead of œ729.99[:D]

So I pick it up on Friday[8D]

I've gone for clipless pedals as well. Shimano 105's I think.

I think I've got a much better bike for not much more money[:D]

Can't wait to try her out[8D]

    I went the other way. Wanted a sport but couldnt get my size so settled for a base model double. regretted the double half way up Ditchling Beacon. The double will fine in Suffolk though. Otherwise I could not be happier with the bike. Very comfortable, good value for money bike and for me , money well spent. [:D][:D][:D]

    Funnily enough, I bought it now because I'm doing the Suffolk Coast Ride in August, my sister lives in Ipswich and her partner suggested we do the run becase it is for The Anthony Nolan Trust, which is a good cause.

    There are some hills in Herts and Beds and I thought a triple would be a better allrounder for me. It's individual choice, though
