Just after some boring ‘what bike advice’ So I am sorry in advance……

I have lost my winter bike to my brother and in the meantime am ‘bikeless’ as I don’t want to take my white one out in the current weather (I know, I know….)

Mrs bbh has given the green light for a replacement (had to work on that one!!!) but am so undecided between those listed above. I obviously cannot test ride all of them and was wondering if anyone has any first hand advice re: any of the above, ride comfort, stiffness, etc….I would be looking to use as a multipurpose bike, e.g. for winter base mile endurance, quick short sharp runs around and also crits in season (hence the leaning towards alu and not carbon and darker colours). I have read the reviews, googled until blue in the face and have now hit a decision wall and really need some help!!!

Btw, anyone got a caad 10 yet?? My lbs said ?may for my size but supply probs at the moment.

Cheers guys

    What sort of spec would you get the S1 with for your budget?

    Well, was thinking of building it up myself (a new venture in itself :D:D ), so prob slowly develop with sram rival, ?bars/stem, aksiums or pro-lite bracs as winter wheels with either mavic elites or rs 80's for summer

    Any good ideas??
