Road bike recommendations

Doubt you can go particularly wrong with a composite Giant frame unless the branding isn't your thing. Fair money for a top-brand carbon ride.

Only point of interest to me is the Apex group - its a bit marmite. But if you liked it, great.

We're you specifically looking for a longer distance orientated bike?

Thanks for the advise. Yeah, after something for 100 plus rides so you reckon this would be a good call?
