Ribble bikebuilder? The one on the left <<< is one I had built (online) in 2006. All Campag (Centaur) including Proton wheels. Its been perfect.
I do actually own a fairly modern bike^_^

Not if you want something this year ... e.g. the Bikebuilder for their top carbon frameset states... We are currently experiencing high demand. Your estimated dispatch date is TBC
And they only offer Shimano...urgh ;)

Sorry everyone but that Condor thing turned out bad. They don't have any of the frame sizes I need in the bikes I'd go for and I couldn't possibly risk a trip to that London so I have to start again.

So to repeat, does anyone know where I can buy a road bike with Campagnolo ready to ride pretty much straight away? There's fewer and fewer of these rare beasts about anymore.
What size do you actually need?
If you're not prepared to travel, just start calling all the high end shops within your preferred radius and see what they have and can build for you? Even if you have to source the parts

@PaulB - does the 'new' (to you) bike have to actually be new?

(I'm asking because a friend of a friend used to buy a very expensive new bike every year and dispose of the previous year's model. I would say that he is probably about your height. You never know, he might be entering his annual upgrade process now... :whistle:)

I'd be very interested. And no, it doesn't necessarily have to be new.

Above and beyond! Thank you for finding bikes that I never found. I'm interested in two of those.
