Mekk Poggio P20

[frayBentos59]

Does anybody own one of these bikes or thinking of buying? Magazine reviews tend to be favourable but you can't beat the good honest advice of a forum punter

No direct experience but spoke with guy at my LBS. He stated that the wheels and tires let it down which will need upgraded. I picked it up and it was weighty for a Carbon bike. The CAAD 10 was lighter and nicer. As others will say, find one locally and take it for a test ride - you may love it and it may fit like a glove!.

Hi, sorry to reopen the thread but did you go for the p20? I'm currently doing a 35 mile round trip commute on a Dahon matrix folder...obviously any road bike is now looking nice compared to that! And my lbs has a p20 and I wondered whether it would be any good for my daily commute?

Its available on my C2W scheme so i did have a little look at it.

It does get some reasonable reviews but very so-so.

For the same money there are a lot of very good bikes.

Thanks, I've only found the bike radar first look online so far but have only just started looking,
just happened to be in the lbs earlier and want to support him as he's an ex work colleague as well as my local bike shop and he mentioned a couple of bikes in stock and the p20 was one of them.

What bike did you go for on the scheme? (I would be doing c2w too)

didnt - not yet anyway.

Cant decide, although the Giant defy 1 2013 model will be top of my list.
