Checked Decathlon and the Triban is a hell of a deal. I'm slightly put off by Microshift though. Have you used it?
Their cheapest Sora bike is 450. I'd rather have full Tiagra and Shimano wheels for another 50 quid.
The cheap fucker in me says I'll take advantage of Wiggle's 30 day test ride and send it back in January for a refund. Does seem a bit disingenuous though.

Cheap but decent road (or cx frame)? Would prefer 28-32mm tyres. And somehow I'm fixated to 1x10/11 drivetrain for its simplicity and cheaper price(?) but does that make any sense really? It just seems that on my 50/34 - 12/28 CdF I'm mostly spinning on the inner ring, even without any luggage, and I hate adjusting the front derailleur.
The list so far (not in any particular order):
