Boardman v Orbea

[BudgieBike]

So after much saving I have 2 and a bit burning a hole in the bib shorts. Looking at either Orbea M20Team D or Boardman SLR Endurance 9.4
Been riding 18 months upgrading from Specialized Allez. Had bike fit 9 months ago and was helpful so hoping measurements can be transferred
Any opinions or others I need to look at. Know this is daft but cannot be red in colour. Had 3 red cars and written off 2. So mentally not chancing it on 2 wheels without airbags

Thanks for thinking about this for me

Bit different aren't they? One is caliper and Di2, the other is disk and cable ultegra.

Orbea for me, always looks really nice.

Plenty of good bikes at that price though, probably can't go wrong with anything.Probably will end up with what you like best though.

Only caveat will be be geometry of course and what you want it for.

Has to be the Boardman for me.

(But I would say that... )

Sorry should have added disc to the Boardman

Will be used for long Sunday rides. Don't want to be the fastest.

Try them both and see which floats your boat. No other sensible way of deciding.
