Hi all,

I'm looking to buy a road bike to get back into riding and was wondering if anyone could give me some advice.

I'm about 5 foot 11 and am not sure about which bike to buy or what size would suit. I realise I would need to try the bike before purchasing but would be greatful for any advice so I can narrow the field.

I've got about £300-£350 to spend and have read that the Carrera Virtuoso is a decent start point but am unsure of any other options.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Hi, i would guess you would need a Large / 56cm bike but obviously you should try a few before deciding.
    Also how about a good second hand bike, you could get a Giant OCR / SCR or Specialized Allez if you look around or put a wanted ad in the Road Classified section :D
