Further to my recent post:

I'm considering this BMC, but I don't know the first thing about them.

Ticks all my boxes apart from price. Will try and get 20% off rrp as it is 2017 model.

Has anybody got any experience?

Swiss company, only Evans sell in U.K. decent bikes. Go testride, just need photo ID and bank card

Evans probably won’t do a discount unless listed on sale though

Order via quidco you might get a few % cashback

What do you want to know, designed in Switzerland and made in the Far East and carries the same initials as the disastrous British Motor Corporation from the last century. Decent enough spec. You could probably do better price wise with a Boardman which gets good press on here. There’s a legion of similar bikes out there so have a good look around before deciding.
