This is one worth checking out, https://www.sigmasport.co.uk/item/Cervelo/S5-Road-Frameset-2017/EX0K
Personally i would always buy the frame and build it myself, or get someone to build it for you to your speck.

He wants discs, I linked the disc option above

I used to have a Bianchi. I sold it. Bianchi make this now

That's the built bike with Super Record EPS groupset and CF rims. I like 'mental hospital / gas chamber' green, other colours are available though.

It's fairly obvious that what you need, and what you want, is a Brompton.

Now, getting it up to your required price ticket may be a challenge ... but not an insuperable one!

Easy - just buy seven of them.

Or 2-3k on top of the range Brompton and then a roadbike or two

Go custom build rather than off the peg.

Ah the joys of posting after a late night working. So I'm after a road bike with discs, Groupset I don't mind but probably going to be super record when the discs come out, Dura Ace, Sram Red etc.

Were it me, and I had that much money burning a hole in my wallet, I'd be looking at Parlee, Moots, Mosaic, and Legend. But I'd probably buy another Litespeed and save myself an arm and a leg.

It's reached that time of year when new bike time has arrived So thought I'd see what people are riding around my budget so what are you riding that is decent for 5-8K.

I'd rather have peoples personal experiences of what they are riding as I too can read a magazine review and adverts.

well my current ride that comes in under your 5 - 8k budget is a 1980's Holdsworth Professional sl in fact it would leave you a min of £4200 to spend elsewhere !!
