Hello,i am after an opinion on the bikes mentioned above please.
I am 6ft 2in and weigh about 17 stone,i am after a bike to use on a daily commute of 19 miles,but i like to ride as often as possible and want to up the miles a fair bit. My current ride is a Pinnacle Neon3 hybrid from Evans with clip in pedals,bar ends fitted and the stem flipped over for a comfier riding position. I am by no means a racing snake but think i will benefit from a full racing style bike as i am hoping to hit the 100 mile ride before the end of the year. I will be booking in for a full bike fit to make sure everything is perfectly set for my riding style. I have read all the reviews and narrowed things down to these two bikes. If im honest i prefer the Moda but was wondering what you guys think.I will be purchasing on a 3year interest free option so my choices are slightly limited. Many thanks to anyone that takes the time to read my post and reply.

    Choosing a bike is a wonderfully personal decision but its always good to hear other opinions. I can't comment on the Moda, although they get reasonably good ratings when I've seen them reviewed in the trade press. I am, however, an unashamed Cube fan of the highest order. I currently own two (neither of them your model) and cannot overstate what great value and superb bikes they are. Not only do I find the actual frames brilliant to ride - I have an aluminium Aerial and a Carbon Litening - but the quality of the components, for the price, is second to none. I've owned Cubes for over 4 years now - I've even had a serious issue with the carbon frame which was replaced AND upgraded by Cube with no argument whatsoever - so forgive me for being biased, but my bias is only based on personal experience.
    Good luck whatever you choose.
