I'm looking for my first road bike. money no issue.
Have looked at Giant TCR advanced 2 and Cannondale supersix both around £2,900. I've seen the boardman carbon in Halfords for £999 and I have a 10% discount with Halfords making it £900.Making it very tempting.
Have been cycling for 6 months and feel its time to concentrate on road biking as I already have a mountain bike.
Also I'm very wary of our local Halfords as the service last time I used it was simply "crap"
I want to make a sensible choice as I am realistic to know I'll never make the olympics as I'm 51 years old, but I've got the bug and wish I'd got back on a bike again years ago as I absolutely love it.
You lot must hear these type of questions all the while.
I'd like the more expensive ones but is the difference worth it bearing in mind my current level.
What do you think???
