Hi all,
Am looking at a new road bike and these two have caught my eye as good value for money.

And

I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with either and if so what did they think of them.

Thanks

    I bought a triban 3 for my first venture into road cycling for many years, I've since upgrade but still use the triban in the bad weather. For the price you really can't fault it!

    As above. Bought mines 2 years ago and its now my commuter. It's been through everything the British weather can through at it and still runs great.

    +1

    Or wait for the new £380 Triban 500SE which will be released this month: http://road.cc/content/news/113951-just ... ban-500-se

    I used to have a red Triban 3, great starter bike. Decathlon's customer service is great too.
