    Andy why only Specialized? I know that they're good bikes but you're seriously limiting yourself!!

    And costing yourself more money. Why do you need help if your choice is already made! Buy the specialzed that suits your budget!

    It doesn't reall matter wat budget.

    But I don't want full suspension, and I want disc brakes.

    The reason why I want a new is, 4 months ago I accedently totaled the bike in a crash that left me in hospital for 4 weeks with a broken, leg, 4 ribs, and both coalr bones.

    when I recoverd I tried rebuilding it myself in stead of buying a new one, but it cost to much and takes to long and i like to keep fit and on top of my game.

    so I said wouldn't it be easy buing a new one.

    I just need help becuse I cant make my mind up :(

    but it has to be specailized becaus i can get discount on these bikes...

    thanks agagin..

    Another problem, it has got be an allround bike, because I wil be cicling to work, riding it every where.

    My last bike was great, I rode to work on it no problem, I rode on it on the Brecon Beakons,peniens, I even took it up the Breacon Beacons in the snow.

    so I need a bike thats an all round bike like my last one, that can cope with anytjhing I through at it, but it needs to be lighter than my last one and stronger and more durable.

    cheers

    I don't know of what Specialized bike but I would suggest invest in some protection:
    helmet, gloves, body armor (or just elbow pads) and knee guards.
