All you Planet-X riders, especially the SL Pro Carbon model.
What made you choose "P X" over say, a Focus Cayo or a Boardman etc.
Anyone care to comment.

Best value for money, mainly Dura Ace build for under £1100. Frame is a proven race winner. Availability.

got the SL pro carbon - bought it because the package was very good for the money, DA gears, brakes , FSA gossamer compact etc etc etc and despite me not being able to find a magazine style review of the particular bike , the reviews I had read across a variety of fora ( particularly the triathlon ones ) gave the bike and company a very very good write up.

as for the Cayo, im not sure if at the time the price was so similar ( dont shoot me if wrong !) but I think aesthetics had something to do with it and I really liked the black carbon PX.

only things that have changed on the bike are saddle ( charge Knife ), seatpost ( FSA carbon zero ) and wheels ( trashed front PX front and bought some fulcrums ...another story )

if i can ever figure out how to post pictures I will stick one one here one day !


I love my PX !
