Trek or Cannondale?

ILM

Hi

I've been looking at our cycle to work scheme and have seen these three bikes. There are others but these stand out.

The TREK has 105 components and the Cannondale Tiagra. Is the Cannondale frame that much better that it has these components on compared to the 105???
I have posted on here about changing from a double to a triple on my Allez but will stick with compact this time unless getting a triple for an extra £25 is worth it??

any thoughts on these?? Have to admit I like the look of the TREK.

CAAD 9 is an awesome frame, better than the Trek's.

To the point where I am considering selling my 2007 Look 555 Carbon Fibre frame and getting a CAAD9...

passout

Trek are, nevertheless, good. I've had a Trek 1000 for anearly 10 years now. I guess the Cannondale has more upgrade potential if you plan to keep it a good few years. Both have their strengths.
