I'm getting the itch to drop some pounds on a modern road bike.
I like the look of the Boardman Compfi, even though the name is hideous.

I think more of entry level, but not the lowest level. I don't know if I'm going to like it, although I don't know why I wouldn't.
Has anyone tried one of the Boardmans? What are they like to ride?
Any other suggestions?
(Not Trek, I know it sounds ridiculous but I had such a disaster with a Trek a while ago that I just can't think of them without getting a bit angry and flustered)
I am, naturally, meant to be getting rid of larger items rather than accumulating them, but I'll worry about that when I move. The chap may just have to get used to tripping over bikes on the stairs, or sharing a bed with one when we run out of space.
