Hi, I'm looking at starting to bike to work, I'm after a reliable and good road bike for around £400-£550. Has anyone any suggestions for a good bike around that price range?
Thanks

Depends on the degree of brand snobbery you wish to partake in. I would suggest one of these, granted they've been reduced to 400 before but still good.

A good selection here in your price range: http://www.paulscycles.co.uk/m7b0s6p0/Road-Bikes/Racing-Road-Racing
Cannondales, Scotts, Cubes, Giants, GTs- all good brands and all under £500.___________________________________________

Take a look at the Triban range in Decathlon they always get good write ups.Hi, I'm looking at starting to bike to work, I'm after a reliable and good road bike for around £400-£550. Has anyone any suggestions for a good bike around that price range?

Hey! Kind of in same position, so I've never bought a road bike before, Would I be better off with the Argos one or one from Decathlon.0

Purely based upon owner feedback the Decathlon but as the poster above has mentioned take at look at the offerings at paulscycles.co.uk.Hey! Kind of in same position, so I've never bought a road bike before, Would I be better off with the Argos one or one from Decathlon.0 -
I saw that the Genesis Volare 10 is only 500 now at Tredz, the review I saw said it wasn't bad but not specced as well as some £1000 bikes, however for 500 it seems a really good buy and even has some OK wheels (I probably weigh 100KG so they are needed). Thoughts ?0

This is a bit more money at £700 but does look good value for full carbon . . .

Can't go wrong with a Specialized Allez. Evans have an entry level one at £480.00. As you get more into cycling as you inevitably will (my experience) this is a great frame to upgrade at a later stage.0

As per the advice previously, Decathlon have some good offerings, this looks a decent option within budget.Vaaru Titanium Sram Red eTap

I ended up buying the Genesis one in the end. There was just something about it. That decathlon Alur was £600 when Iast looked. It cost me £494 set up and delivered within 3 days.
It arrived today and though I have nothing to compare it to i'm impressed with everything but the seat.
I can lift it with one hand quite easily and have ordered some decent shoes and pedals.
Very Happy.0
