Giant Defy 1 Compact 2013 Road Bike
http://www.cyclestore.co.uk/productDetails.asp?productID=56374
Is this amongst the best at that price?
What others would you recommend I consider?
I ride at least 5 times a week for about 2 hrs each time, both for commuting and leisure, although I have a cheaper specialised road bike which I intend to commute with.
I did consider the Boardman Road Team:-http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_789235_langId_-1_categoryId_165710
but I've had two boardmans and had a few issues with them.
The Boardman road carbon developed a clicking noise which was never sorted and I got a refund.
The Boardman Team Hybrid creaks and groans every time I wash it so think issue with bottom bracket; think I've had at least 2/3 new bottom brackets in the last 18 months!
Thanks ahead.
