Right ! I think that’s fabulous value.
I don’t ride one; and have no need for a road bike.
And I still want one 🤣

I've bought a couple of bikes via Merlin, one of them a Felt road bike. The only thing needing doing was to turn the bars.
But it comes with 8-speed Claris. I can't see how it was £1179 originally.
I was VERY tempted by the deal they had on the Felt Tiagra bike back in March but bought a bargainous carbon Roubaix off here instead.
Edit: it's still in stock, but only in "beanpole" 61cm

Nothing wrong with Felt Bikes, but they are not PDI’d so you need to ensure headset is correct with no play, gear high/lows are set correctly. In reality most are likely a case of unbox, handlebars on and wheels on.

Ok for commuting but would be awful on a 100 miler.

More wheels than sense
Don't assume they are anything like they used to be , DHB is now just another Ashley label.

Somebody posted upthread about some DHB padded longs, said they were poor compared to DHB of old.
However, for the cash, they'll likely be fine for commuting if you have a forgiving undercarriage

Ooh matron !
For £11 they are worth a punt and I will report back,they certainly look like the proper ones from the piccie and I have a"proper" pair already so I can compare

My recently received DHB padded longs (bought from Frasers Group) are just the same as the padded shorts I bought from Wiggles closing down sale, and I'd happily ride 100 miles in them. They are far far better than the Pinnacle (Evan's own brand) padded longs I have.

The Felt Broam I've recently acquired seems fantastic.
But, it definitely wasn't setup properly. Bit of a laundry list, including the RD cable outer being too short. Absolute fine choice if you can read a Shimano manual, work a hex wrench and you don't mind springing a few quid on new longer cable outer.
