I'm looking for a new bike for fast training rides and eventually racing. I don't want to spend lots as I already have a 'best' bike (for Sunday club rides and long/hilly rides) and this offering from Radon caught my eye.

- Triple-butted Alu frame
- Full carbon forks
- New 11-spd 105 groupset
- Mavic Askium wheels
- 7.85kg without pedals

Currently going for £775 plus delivery which seems excellent value to me. I would replace the Askium's with some carbon clinchers I already own so selling the Askium's would net me £100.

There's little information and review on-line so just wondering if anyone has any knowledge of this model or Radon bikes in general. Are they 'generic' Alu frames or bespoke to Radon?
