Hi everybody,
I’ve got a carbon bike with 105 groupset that I don’t really want to wreck over the winter commuting on. I’m looking for aluminium frame, Sora, disc brakes and mounts for pannier and mudguards. My commute is 12 miles each way.
I applied for and just received a £500 voucher. I quite liked the look of the Triban RC500 but reading about changing tyres has seriously worried me as that seems like a basic thing!
So, for £500 (Or £530 etc) what would you get for a bombproof winter commuter?
