Are any of the more mainstream manufacturers still making steel road bikes? I've seen some that are being produced by more specialist makers almost as a sort of vintage novelty item and usually at a fair old price so I was wondering if there were any being made aimed at the more general market. When I eventually do get to treat myself to a brand new bike I think that I will want a steel one. I've never had a carbon bike and I'm a bit put off by the specialized nature of the material. I like to be able to think that the odd bend and bash to the frame is not beyond a repair or a bit of bending or whacking back into shape (and yes, I know I am a bit of a philistine). So, steelies from new. Anybody?
