I’d been searching for a new (normal) road bike for a while but saw this eBay bargain and picked it up at the weekend and had my first ride on it tonight. Its been 4 years since I was on a road bike and I thought I’d really miss the drop bars but I was suprised how little I thought about it. I may try some drops on at some stage if i can get some shifters cheap enough.

It feels very fast compared to my slicked up MTB!
