  • Thank you

    I doubt he's factored in all the little bits like that (that will rack up quote a bit)
    Reckon he can probably skip the power meter though pretty sure he has no racing aspirations.

    That 'dale looks good seeing as he's 54.

  • Seriously - the specialised is probably a decent shout.

    There's a lot of snobbishness on this forum about big name bike manufacturers - but all of their top line bikes are bloody great.
    I've ridden and owned my fair share of bikes and the best I've ridden are, in this order:

    1) cervelo r5 (currently owned) - r3 is also a good option if you don't want to drop all that on a frame. Just a perfect bike- stiff, comfortable, light with great handling.

    2) Specialised s-works tarmac. Maybe a bit boring, but bloody amazing to ride - just does everything you ask it to.

    3) Bmc team machine. Stunning ride quality, beautiful finishing - but not as light or sriff as the other two.

    Other great bikes - Felt f1, cannondale super six evo, and the top line Madones.

  • Plus one for 'big brand' bikes; I love my Madone.

    Cervelo R3/5 or Tarmac will probably get my vote from Dan's list as I don't see the current madone to be an all round bike since they drunk the aero kool aid.

    Also Supersix evo. And my personal fav Domane koppenberg.
