Dilemma

[new-fish]

Help!!!! Guys, I appreciate there must be a multitude of similar posts one here but please bear with me. Basically I'm now ready to get back on bike after my prang. My uncle, top man that he is, said I could use his road bike in meantime while I get another bike. My previous one was a specialized Allez, and I loved it. In meantime I'm using his Giant, which is a carbon frame, compared to the aluminium that was my Allez R.I.P. this has caused a dilemma now as in what fame to get. The carbon has very much a different feel to it which I love. Any opinions out there as to whether or not a carbon would be worth getting?

If you love carbon and can afford the spec you want, go for carbon. But consider the practicalities around racks, mudguards etc. Or get both

Look at Planet-X for very good bargain Carbon bikes.
Agree with Vickster, if Carbon suits what you want .... go for it!
