Hi, I am thinking about getting a new endurance road bike in the spring. At the moment it is between the Rose X lite CDX 3100 and the Giant defy advanced pro 0 2017 model. Which is best? does anyone have any experience of Rose? the spec on the Rose looks amazing but I am unsure because the company is abroad where if I have the giant and there is any problems with the bike I only have to return it to my LBS don't I? Can anybody help please?

    Rose have a UK based rep in the Bath area and in my experience he is a diamond. Phone him and see if you can get a test ride.
    I have a Rose CSL, it is sublime.

    Out of the two I will chose Rose X lite. I had Rose Xeon DX DI2 and it preformed great only to be replaced by my new Ti frame.

    same - very happy with my Rose CFG-3100Di2.

    Couple of minor issues which were expertly and quickly sorted by Rose. Nothing but praise for them. Also cost me significantly less than anything in local bike shops/mail order in the UK.
