Right so I’ve been commuting on a 10 year old Giant R1 escape and fancy an upgrade. Not on the cycle to work scheme as I have my MTB on it.
I’ve always fancied a Cannondale Bad boy,
My commute is 8 miles of pure london roads. With a few pot holes. Highgate to archway to Tottenham Court Road to green park.
Or should I look at????? Flat bars or drop bars? (I’ll have a small 8ltr rucksack each ride) I have the option to get a new bike with £1000 max to spend, but a road bike vs a hybrid (should I get another hybrid over a pure road bike because of the abuse daily commuting does, and they seem to hold up bettering or sonive)
Cube attain pro 2021 (has mechanical brakes, so another thing to adjust over hydraulic )
Cannondale bad boy 2/3
Whyte Stirling v2
Cube Hyde race (has belt drive and hub gears so changing a tyre at the side of the road is slightly longer)
Cheers
