Should I tear their arm off?

Evening all

I have just been down to my LBS to see what is available for £1100-1400....anyway long story short I have been offered an 07 Spesh Roubaix Expert for £1650 down from £1999. It has been on 2 very short (round the car park) test rides and is mint.

Whilst it is a little over budget; it's a lot of bike for the money and in my size 58 they are like rocking horse droppings so "deals" are non existant.

So...is it worth going for..?

If `deals` are non existant ... and they are rare as ... I`d get back quick .

i would proceed with stealth and make sure you do not want a sportier bike than the roubaix...if that's the type of bike you're after then it's a good deal!

I found this deal earlier this evening which I thought was good (hope it does not make chosing even harder for you):

roubaix is relaxed geometry, scott is rock on racing geometry. i have a roubaix comp and love it. i have no desire to get down so low that my knees hit chest so i didn't buy a racing geometry bike.
roubaix deals ARE non existent and yours is a cracking deal.
all depends what you want really

As FH says proceed carefully its a lot of dosh if it end up not fit for purpose . Not just now but in the future . Depends on what you want but I found the Roubaix felt a little dead and unresponsive when I was in the market for a new steed . Did not want an out and out racer either so went for this

I also heard good reports about the Willier Mortorolo but could not test ride so went for the Cannondale ; A few folsk on here have the Willier .
