Hi, looking for my first half decent road bike. Unfortunatly i only have around £600 to spend. The question is do i get something better spect but second hand and maybe 2-3 years old...or do i buy new and maybe not get so much bike for the money? The 2 i have in mind at the minute are a used but good condition 2010 trek 2.3 Alpha or a brand new Felt F85.
I dont have much experience but going by the reviews these both look faily good deals for around £550 each. It will be used for fitness training (20-30 miles) and a couple of triathlons this year.
If there are better choices please let me know but i cant decide...do i go used or new for my first bike?

Always think you get better value second hand. Some good bargains out there! However you can also grab some of last year's bike models at reduced rates brand new!
