Sad times, my allez sport had to go back and now i'm bike less, rather its was the mrs:(.
My first road bike and had to go back due to hollowtech problems, it never lasted more than a week, back 4 times in 6 weeks.
Used to live at the end of my bed, and now shes not there:( lol
Seriously what do I buy next? For around the £500 mark? I got a good deal on the allez, so dont want to go for anything less as it was a tasty bike

2nd hand? I picked up a 18 month old cannondale with 105 kind of spec for that money on ebay last year. Hadn't been used much and well maintained - certainly a much better spec than you could get new or that kind of money0

Deepest sympathies
I've never known that pain, my c'dale recently died a bit but a new wheel, innertube, cables and a bit o' work later and she'll pull through
Plus she's getting on a bit so we saw it coming.......
Plus 1 for 2nd hand though at least ya know it's broken in and works, not the same as shiny new outa the box though, :?winter beast: http://i497.photobucket.com/albums/rr34 ... uff016.jpg

A Rapha tweed jacket? With the £50 change you could buy a Rapha scarf. :shock:I'd rather walk than use Shimano0 -

It's a 63cm frame!! You'd want to be well over 6'4'' to fit it.Every winner has scars.0 -
Bianchi though c-c seat post to steerer is 58cm, thought i read the Allez was 61cm, dunno where i got that from :oops:winter beast: http://i497.photobucket.com/albums/rr34 ... uff016.jpg
