martylaa

Someone please put me out of my misery today:
All at Evans:

Black Mode which has full Deore spec at £625

or

Nickel Model which has Deore and Tiagre at £599

Surely if i can get it i should go for the Black one yeah?
Someone put me out of my misery, or should i be going for the Specialized Sirrus Elite £649 ( although i can get this for £600 at LBS )

deep down i think the Black Trek has the best spec

Plumped for the Trek 7.5FX in black, will upgrade the brakes to Avid SD7's that should be that.

Very nice, what size frame ?

martylaa

gone for the 22.5 size, spoke to the person at evans and we both think thats gonna be best seeing as i'm 6ft 1"
if its not good then i am under no obligation to buy and will look for the 20" one

AndyManc

Sounds right. I'm 6ft, got the 21" frame, still got a far bit of seat tube showing , but I'm happy.

One thing I can recommend, a good pair of bar ends, it transforms the bike.

Specialized ergo (ruberised) bar ends are great, I wouldn't have a flat bar bike without them.
