I know there's a similar post on here about the Trek but I was wondering if you guys thought the Langster was worth the extra £100. I can get the Trek Soho S 2009 for £300 from my lbs and a Langster 2010 from Evans for £400. Are the components and the overall bike worth the extra? I don't really know much about bikes, so any input appreciated,

Cheers,

Cheers for the replies guys. Been looking at reviews for the Trek and it looks like I'd need to spend a fair bit upgrading some parts to get a really nice ride from it, wanted drops anyways. So looks like it's the Langster! Maybe.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
