Hi gang,

My current cycle to work scheme is up in December and it's time to find a new bike.

I have a couple I use regularly for my commute (7-15 miles each way depending on route hilly/flat) and will try and get in a 50-miler once a week. I have a Carrera Vanquish, Dawes Impulse 531c and a Raleigh Team Corsa Panasonic 501.

Looking for something light (under 9kg) preferably with Shimano 105. The new 2017 Orbea Avant H30 seems a good option but wondering about others such as the Cube Attain SL or a 2016 Felt F5. Not massively brand conscious but weight is the thing. Mango do a Point R with 105 for about £700 but it seems to be heavier. It's a little frustrating not seeing many weights listed and while a couple of hundred grams isn't a big difference a kg certainly is....
