Hi folks

Looking for some advice on Dolan bikes. Does anyone have one or have any experience of them?

I currently have a specialized allez comp 2010 and looking to upgrade to a carbon bike. I like the look of Dolan and you get good value for money for example the L'Etape model with full Ultegra and cosmic wheels for under £1600.

Also like the look of ribble and Planet X. Anyone any opinions appreciated.

Thanks

This thread may help :smile: (at least on the frame and service if not exact spec)

There are probably others via the search function :smile:

Where do you live as all three companies have a showroom and there's no substitute for looking at the bikes in the plastic and sitting on them (and preferably test riding).
I may be wrong but I think they will all use a similar generic carbon frame :smile:

I live up in Scotland and most of showrooms are down south. You are right though. Can't beat test riding for the feel of the bike.

Better to stick with a bicycle manufacturer if you want an up to date frame.

I have a planet x rt-57 which is a lovely bike.

Mrs kes has a Dolan preffisio which has been superb.

Both companies were excellent to deal with and most helpfull on the phone.

After previous experience of ribble "customer service" I discounted them as suppliers of anything more expensive/complex than socks......

GMarshall,
I have a L'Etape model with SRAM Rival 22 and absolutely love it. It is quick, comfortable and fantastic value for money. Also the service from Dolan was first class. I have a few other steeds, and it compares really well to some of my more expensive bikes.
The Dolan showroom is in Ormskirk, Well worth a visit.
