Halfords currently have 20% off their bikes, add on the bc 10%discount and that makes it just under £1300. Considering the reviews said it was ridiculous value at full price (1799) this makes it very tempting. I was talking to someone last week who had done just this.
Anyone else bit the bullet with this bike? Any tall riders got one as I'm 6ft 5.

    Not got one but I'd seriously consider one at that price.
    Force 22 Tick
    Chrome/silver finish Tick
    Decent wheels for the price Tick
    Good reviews Tick
    Head tubes look pretty short though so check the dims compared to your current bike, nobody likes too many headset spacers, they can make a nice bike look ugly :wink:
    2016 Supersix Ultegras can be had for under £1500 now sales on so I'd consider them too ( I ride a Supersix with Force 22 so you can see how my opinion is formed !)
