Hi,
Want to get an order down for a new road bike. I have whittled my favourites down to:
£2200 Ultegra Agree C:62 RACE DISC
http://www.cube.eu/uk/products/road-rac ... hred-2016/

£1600 105 Agree C:62 DISC
http://www.cube.eu/uk/products/road-rac ... hite-2016/

£1800 Ultegra Attain GTC SL DISC
http://www.cube.eu/uk/products/road-rac ... llow-2016/

Also considered:
£2110 Rose CDX 3000 Ultegra - Do not like the colour schemes

£1400 Canyon Endurace 7.0 SL Ultegra - Do not like the colour schemes and no disc version
https://www.canyon.com/en-gb/road/endur ... -0-sl.html


My budget is up to about £2200, I'm looking for a more sportive/comfier geometry and I would like to have hydraulic disc brakes.
What are your thoughts on the above, and can you suggest any options?

    The correct response should be "the on that fits you best and you've ridden and like the most".

    Putting that to one side for now.

    There's a load of bikes that are all frankly very good. I may like what I have, but I can't honestly say that it's "better" than anything else. If you like the look, the colour or whatever, then get what you like.

    What Singleton said. The Rose link doesn't work for me but of the cubes I actually prefer the cheapest one based on appearance. You have to like the look of what you get ornyou will gaze longingly at them and always be slightly envious. The Attain is fugly imo and I'm not keen on the Ultegra Agree colourscheme myself. 105 is pretty close in performance to Ultegra (have had bikes with both but admittedly not the disc brakes)

    Pick the one you like best then find a shop where you can test ride it. If it feels right & fit is good then buy it!
  • I like the look of the 105 but I'd probably go for the £2200 bike, the £1800 just doesn't do it for me.
