I'll be in the market for a new bike early next year so I can continue my critt racing & also looking to make a debut in a few Cat 4 road races .
Currently own a Giant Defy advanced 2 size XL ( with a lot of seat post ! ) that I love & since purchasing in April this year I'm just over 3000 miles with it , but it's a bit heavy & has disk brakes so I've been knocked back on a few race entires as they're currently banned .
I'm a big lad 6' 5" & just under 16 stone , want to buy a nice new bike to race / compete with & keep the Giant for my winter / spare bike .
Tickets booked at the NEC for the bike show so hopefully can see a few different makes & models & hopefully try a few out .
Any suggestions , I'd love a fast , stiff , light bike that will enable me to get the power down through it .
