Caad12 - at a push.
But given his natual descending ability I'd look to the Big S and their no questions asked warranty policy.

He weighs 18/19 stone. Does that rule out carbon?
It shouldn't, given how strong you could make a carbon frame if you were minded to do so. Unfortunately, you can make it light instead and that's the market where all the profit is.

I have someone looking to buy a first decent road bike. It must be from Evans. He has a max spend of £1200. He weighs 18/19 stone. Does that rule out carbon? Just stick to steel? Any particular recommendations?
Edit also hoping to get shimano 105
