I've been thinking of getting a new bike and have been looking at the FOCUS Variado. The spec seems really high for the price and generally a good bike with good reviews from friends and magazines.

Can anyone reccomend any other bikes around the same price mark (£650ish) of a similar standard?

I'm going to be making good use of the cycle to work scheme!

Cheers

    You'll struggle to find a better bike than the Variado at that price. It represents astounding value for money.

    That's what I thought! I have seen a BeOne that seems similar value for money? Does anyone know of their reputation and suppliers in the UK?

    Only suppliers of Be One are Chain Reaction I think. Look good value but can't comment on reputation.
    Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos
