The next bike - buying advice

velvetytoast

Hi all,

I've had a Boardman team (medium) for about a year now and riding regularly for a couple of years. My son claims to want to take up road riding and wants the Boardman (so who am I to refuse) As luck would have it I've just had a windfall of about £1500 and the sales are on......

I'm looking for a great deal on something for Sportives next year and I figured many eyes are better than one - anyone spotted the deal of a lifetime? (BTW The Focus Cayo team replicas don't have my size - L is now discontinued)

any suggestions?

The Cinelli Willin got a good review by Bike Radar in 2009. Link here for 2010 model:

Specialized Secteur Comp? You can get one for 2/3rds of your budget...or a Ribble Sportive with some decent wheels?

for that money you should find a Wilier Mortirollo Veloce in the sales - a beautiful looking and handling bike

if you want something a bit different to a Secialized, or Trek - there your answer
