Posts: 2
have only just started road cycling (20-30 miles at weekend) and now need to invest!
budget of around £600 but can stretch...
looking at the cube aerial, bianchi nirone 7 sora, boardman, trek or specialized allez/secteur?
have spent hours searching (hence the confusion) and the only thing i do know is that i need a 58 frame...!
any advice on accessories too?
thanks

I was originally looking at that price range and would have gone for the Trek 1.2 but then discovered the C2W scheme and that meant I could go up to £1000 and ultimately pay less than £600 so I've got my work setting us up on the scheme now. So in the first instance, assuming you are in employment and intend staying there for the next 12 to 18 months I would say check if your employer runs a C2W scheme or even ask them to join one - the choice at the £1000 level is huge or you can still go in at the £600 level and get loads of accessories too0
