Thought I'd revive this old thread for a roadie question. I'm ordering a road bike on Cyclescheme at the moment, and I've priced up Ribble's cheapest aluminum frame with Campag Centaur groupset and Vento wheels for £990. Thing is, they also charge a £65 fee for ordering with Cyclescheme.
Before I hit the button, does anyone know of a similarly good deal around at the moment? Perhaps with someone who doesn't charge that fee?
For £100ish more you can keep the Centaur and get a nice carbon frame. The wheels will be slightly lower spec but overall I reckon you'd get a much nicer bike - I really like my Sportive.
PX is arguably a better deal but IMO their frames aren't as nice looking as the carbon Ribbles. Also, they don't do Campag.
