Triban 5

[Flyingfox]

Anyone got one or give an opinion?

Saw this today in Decathlon and seems great for the money as an entry-level road bike.

The ones in the shop no longer have Sora groupsets but are Integra, so one up (if I've done my homework right).

I think the Carrera Vanquish is slightly better spec'd

Best be quick and get and old model because they've dropped the spec but not the price on the newer version.

And yes I have a Vanquish

Integra ?

Do you mean Tiagra ??

I have ridden the Vanquish, take away the shifters and it is a souped up virtuoso , go for the triban.

Yes, I meant Tiagra!

A mate recently bought one and I was shocked by the spec for the money.
Tiagra throughout (inc. Chainset) except for the mechs which are Sora, carbon forks and rear stays...and less than 500 notes, can't be bad.
