Giant bikes very underrated by some, great bikes, I have a Defy it's very comfortable. I'm 6' 2 and I ride a large.

Sit on the bike, ask them to price match or get very close. If they say no say thanks very much and order from Pauls. They will want to be rid of the bike since 2017 bikes are now coming into stock so I reckon you have every chance of a price match.

I'll only charge 10% to buy something for you.

FWIW, I moved from Tiagra 10 speed to 105 11 speed. If its around £100 difference I'd say its worth it. Nothing wrong with Tiagra but the 105 is a smoother and more rewarding experience IMO.

Forget about worrying about 28/32 largest casette, your legs will make a bigger difference on all but the UKs relative handful of *really* tough climbs.

Sometimes individuals can't be helped and should be left to their own devices - after much dithering this thread is a waste of virtual ink.

It's gone all around the houses, this brand, that brand, this bike, that bike - what's the point of carrying on?

As soon as there is some resolution a new brand/bike enters the arena.

Pile of tosh imo.
