Buying a New Bike..

[Herbie]

Only seen photos of the Cannondale Bad Boy 2 and the Specilalized Comp, not seen them in real life yet.. really looking forward to seeing them in the flesh.
Plus I can look at other bikes in the showroom as a back up.
PS.. evanscycles have been very helpfull so far.

Good choices i think but i would'nt really know as into tourers

My LBS were great, I arranged a bike fit, and then selected the bike I wanted/felt more comfortable on (My Secteur which no one else seems to talk about when mentioning Specialized it's all about the Allez...but that's something for another day) when I went back to pay I asked about extras and said what I needed, and we rounded it up by about £50 and I had over £100 worth of stuff. I wasn't free, but I still felt happy as I asked for some discount, and I got it.

Wonderful somebody else with a Secteur.

I love it, I just wish I had seen if they had frames with more garish colours as the black/red isn't ridiculous enough for me

Nice bike the Secteur - I nearly bought the Comp but at the last minute my heart was swayed by my Giant.

It was the comfiest of the half dozen or so road bikes I tested including a carbon Synapse. I think the Zertz inserts work really well.

Just got back from ther UK with a Cannondale Bad Boy 2.. close call with the other bike which was a Specialized Crosstrail.
Had few other issues that didn't go so well so I'm just wondering what to do.
