Forme Victeur

[endoman]

Looking to eventually get a road bike to complement my Hybrid. Came across Forme and like the fact it can be customised and fitted by the builders, plus they are not too far from me. Is it a worthwhile bike to look at? Other thoughts are the Focus Cayo 105. Might be riding with a mate in a charity job in Oct, 70 ish miles a day for a week or 2,

Will ride it work on nice days, I have secure storage, and save the hybrid for paths and winter commuting.

Nice looking bike, bit expensive compared with the Focus Cayo 105 ? Depends how much customisation you are going to want I suppose. A really good fitting session on it's own will cost £60 - £120, and assuming you have frame size right then maybe you'll have to buy a new stem - say £30 for a nice one?

For the price of the Forme you could get a Cayo Ultegra, which has a rather nice DT Swiss wheelset.....or (going away from Carbon for another thought) a Van Nicholas Mistral with 105

I presume a decent LBS will do a custom fitting session?
Thanks for the options, all new to me.

Hmmm, the Van Nicholas is very interesting,

Does anyone know the headtube sizing for the forme victeur?
And the frame sizing they came in? 57 or 58?
