I've plumped for a CX bike as a N+1 as a winter bike/light tourer/everything else and I've narrowed it down to 2
Boardman CX comp: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._992074_langId_-1_categoryId_165710#sizeguide
Looks great, disc brakes arguably better than rim brakes, but it's a little on the heavy side, alloy fork and replacement wheels could be steep with those disc hubs.
Or there's last year's Cannondale CAADX: http://www.paulscycles.co.uk/m7b0s23p5169/CANNONDALE-CAADX-SORA-2013
Not quite as pretty but it's lighter, carbon fork, 'standard' wheels, I know Cannondales are fantastic as I've already got a CAAD8 and a 58 will definately fit. The only real downside I can see is there's only one set of mounts on the rear dropouts for rack & guards, is this such an issue though? Is sharing problematic?
Anyone got any other options for about the £600 mark?
Tony.
