Hi Everyone
I'm about to purchase my first bike but there is sooo much choice out there, everyone i speak to has different advice. I dont know what to do!!!
I've got about £850 to spend,
I am an keen runner, interested in getting into triathlon,
I cycle to work (roughly 12 miles, currently on a mountain bike with slicks),
I am planning on doing some long distances over 100 miles in the near future.
What do people think? Anyone got any recommendations/suggestions? Do I get a comfortable tourer that I will tour on once or twice a year? Do I get a racer that I can shoot to work in no time on but will be unconfortable over distance? Is there a comprimise???
