[Closed] What road bike for commute?
New longer Brompton cycling/shorter train journey strategy going well. Not getting tired like I thought I would in fact, seriously thinking of stepping up to a totally bike-based commute of 28 miles - 56 per day.
Looking to spend in the region of £600-£700.
Disc brakes preferable. Light but strong, 1" tyres.
Reccomendations?
I would put an offer in for [url= http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=40090&t=12872942 ]this[/url]
if its your size, or new ones are only £740 apparently
light, strong, discs, £700?
Good luck! Closest I can think of is a Ridgeback Cerium @ £850, presuming you want drops (56m a day is A LOT).
you need mudguards btw
Just got a Kona Dr Dew, sounds exactly what you need, or a cannondale bad boy.
Can you get the Ribble winter trainer for that much? If so, that would be my call.
A quick search for the Ridgeback comes up with a price of £697.
