Hi all,

I need some advice as I am just confusing myself.

I am a keen mountain biker and have been for the past 20 years or more. Now I am older and the fact that my knees are starting to give me jip when running, I want to get into road cycling.

I have read many articles, forums and reviews, but it is proving difficult what the best bike is for me.

I plan to do around a 30-40 mile ride on a weekend, and hope to do a few events, the biggest I have looked at is 120K. I am pretty fit, easily run 10K in just over 50 minutes.

I have narrowed it down to 3 bikes from a huge list, and I would like some of your feedback an which one would suit me best, or if none at all.

1.) Planet X Nanolight SRAM Rival 22 Road Bike

2.) DOLAN L'ÉTAPE CARBON ROAD BIKE - SRAM RIVAL 22

3.) Ribble R872 Campagnolo Athena

Thanks all in advance!

Adam

    Any of them would suit you fine. Just pick the one closest to your budget, or that you like the look of.
