Ok after the MCR/BLKPL ride yesterday an incident occurred with wife in car versus bike on the floor.........car won!
So I need a new bike for daily commute of 20 miles a day throughout the year with some bike events over the summer months.
I would like something that soaks up the urban part of my commute but that is faster that the bike that has just been killed, Cannondale Bad Boy.
And I have ( when the insurance arrives) about 1k.
All help gladly received.
Oh and I feel very sad at the death of a beloved companion so please be nice to me.
Scott Speedsters look fast.
Get another Fag-boy?
Cannondale road bikes are always badly spec'd but have good frames for the money at ~£1000.
For more 'comfort' maybe go for the new kaffenback when it arrives?
For more bling something cheep and [s]plastic[/s] carbon.
I've an odd urge to buy one of those ragley road frames, despite me thinking they look pants, apprently they're quite good.
Caad X?
I miss my old bad boy. I'd get another one. The newer ones look ace.
thanks all!
I think I like the look of the road rat in orange, geared with flat bars, anybody got one?
Ridgeback Flite, road gearing, disc brakes and guard/rack mounts.
Most excellent commute / occasional road type event bike.
Go second hand then you can buy my Scott CR1 pro and still have change.
