Hello everyone,
I'm going to take part in the Cycle 2 Work scheme - although the bike is for leisure really. I can spend up to £1000 but want to leave some money for pedals, shoes, helmet and some other items.
The Cannondale CAAD8 7 Sora is £699:

The Felt 85 is £799:

I've considered other bikes (Trek 1.1, 1.2 and 1.5, Specialized Allez, Giant), but I really like these two.
I'm leaning more towards the Cannondale as it seems a good price, I'm a begginner and the reviews online seem excellent. It will also leave more money for some accessories.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Get a test ride on each one and buy the one that you like/fit the best.
If that is not possiible (although I can not see why) then get the cheapest one.Yellow is the new Black.0 -
Pauls cycles usually cheapest for Cannondale's £839 for a 105 CAAD 8.0
