How do from Wakey, West Yorkshire

[Michael Goodson]

Just getting back into cycling (as an excuse to stay away from the gym) and have been gradually increasing the miles on my old(ish) Dawes hybrid. I'm enjoying the road cycling but am know yearning for a reasonably priced road bike (drop bars). The Boardman Road race and Specialized Allez both appeal but I would appreciate a bit of advice as to which is the best bet

Thanks in advance...

Michael

to CC. I can't comment on either of those bikes as I have no experience of either. That said both manufacturers are well regarded so I doubt you'd go far wrong with either

Welcome - I'm near you and have a Spesh Secteur, which I've put 3,000 miles on already this year and is performing well.

Hi and welcome. I personally like Specialized, but the Boardmans look good for the money ...

Hello and welcome. Not far from you in Leeds. I went for the Carrera Virago rather than the Boardman. MIght be worth considing especially if you're a member of a C2W scheme company.
