Which one? Bet I could find some favourable able ones. Cycling weekly gave the Boardman Team 10/10 http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/reviews/road-bikes/boardman-team
I wouldn't put much store in reviews anyway, one mans meat etc.

No idea.
But the post was written as if the OP was in a car showroom, or a proper bike shop. He wasn't.

You've linked the 2012, not 2015

Hello everyone,
As per title, I have £1000 to spend on a road bike, now in other posts I have been putting the cube peloton sl 2015 at the top of my list, but on visiting a few bike shops today, they all said that the components are amazing, but the,frames are not that good ( please correct me if they ar wrong. ) , so I seem to be back to square one with my selection. I have been looking at the Dale synapse, but a bit unsure about the disc brakes, also been looking at the cadd8. Two of the bike shops pointed me towards the Scott speedster 10 2015, which looks nice. But at the end of the day I'm totally confused again now, so call on the experience of fellow cc'ers to give me some options / opinions
Either alloy or carbon.
On suitable steeds for me. This is an early 50th present off my wife.....
If I knew how to post links to bikes I would , but sorry I dont.
Regards
Tony
I presume none of these shops stock Cube?
They are talking utter nonsense. Cube are a decent outfit and make nice well specified bikes at pretty decent price points.
Amongst people I know who ride cubes 1 owns a Peloton and loves it. Two have MTB's and one of those has the living daylights hammered out of it.
No problems reported from anyone.
- The Cube Peloton Pro is great for fitness and leisure use. The SL offers an abundance of highlights, such as the new 11-speed Shimano 105 Compact drive train (with an Ultegra front and rear derailleur), a double crank (50/34) and a wide ratio 11-32 cassette - for a super wide range of riding styles. The stiff and comfortable Mavic Aksium S wheels are great!
- I think I've got to go with this beauty...... And a bike fit from the shop aswell.

Good choice of bike, the 11-speeds are brill, 105's are bullit proof and a 32 cassette is always worth having.
