The Triban 3 is a very popular choice of these forums.
Put Triban in the search box to find a few threads about the bike.

Pretty much out of stock though I thought. Might have trouble finding one your size right now as they are changing over to a new model. Worth getting one of the old ones before the new ones come out as they are considerably better than anything else at that price.

Its sold out can anyone recomend anything else dont know what to look for 2nd hand

You might get a decent 531 bike for £300 going second hand and probably a better bike than the Triban 3. If you don't know anything about bikes then make sure somebody you trust checks the bike before you part with your hard earned cash.

Look locally in Gumtree/Ebay/freeads and look for something round your price. You'll have to find the right size of bike for yourself though before you start looking.

If you see something you like you can always post to ask if its a decent bike, decent price etc.

I have just bought a Triban 3 at the weekend from the Southampton decathlon , they have got loads of them there even though on the website it says they haven't got them. I sent an email to them and they got back to me 3 times in one day answering my questions, excellent service. Cracking bike too.

Thats great, sounds like you are pleased with it. It should give you even more joy in the summer.
