Pinnacle Neon 3 or Triban 520

[LBLondon]

Hello.

I'm new to the forum and hoping someone can offer me some advice please.

I am looking for a new quick, light hybrid bike under £600 for commuting in London- all tarmac with one steep climb.

I have it down to these two and wondering what people think please?

My work is signed up to the Evans cycle to work scheme so the pinnacle would work out £408 overall.

Any advice or help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

The Pinnacle looks better. It has better gearing for steep hills and speed, also has hydraulic brakes IMO.

I've looked at both, Pinnacle gets my vote.

Testride the Pinnacle, see if it makes you smile easy peasy testrides with Evans, just need photo id and a bankcard

Great thank you all. I had a go on the Pinnacle today and it was very nice. Also rode the Hoy .001 which I was slightly disappointed by...

My other half and I both ride pinnacle bikes and love them the spec is great and there comfortable over longer distances
