I’m after a road racing bike to do Sportives and long distance rides on. This has come about after completing an Epic 5day long distance ride and really enjoying it. I’ve been an MTB man since 95, but see that its really easy to get out straight onto the riding roads with a road bike.
Now I’ve seen the above bike advertised and am interested, but am confused as to why its classed as hybrid? Can anyone shed any light on this? Also is 54cm a good size if I’m 5’8″ and 30cm leg.

Thanks for any help 😀

Are they referring to the frame being an alu/carbon hybrid? As they also do/did that frame in all alu and all carbon too I think.

Ahh, I get ya. Dumb advertising then lol!

No idea, but size should be about right. Their compact geometry TCR’s have never really changed so get a ride on a modern one in a shop if you can.
