suggestion for a new bike

[Rone69]

Hello to all,

I'm on the market for a new bike and I'd like some advice from you.
These are more or less the characteristics I'm looking for:
- all-round frame, with good climbing and descent skills
- effective (non UCI) tires clearance up to 28/30mm measured
- rim brakes, I would really appreciate the direct mount brakes
- relatively comfortable, also oriented to outputs + 150km

For now I'm oriented to these models:
- Bianchi Specialissima, I tried it, it's really remarkable
- Orbea Orca OMR, I don't know nothing about the ride quality
- BMC Teammachine SLR01, tires clearance?



Thank you in advance

What might help you get better responses it so quote your rough budget, the bike(s) you have now if any, what kind of riding you do and what kind of riding you're going to use the new bike for.
At a glance it looks like you're after a performance-oriented road bike with the option for a softer ride using large tyre clearances, I'd recommend trying anything before you buy it as you have with the Bianchi.

+1 As above and it might be a nice idea to post some links .

I think the new Cannondale System Six aero bike supports up to 32mm tyres, perhaps worth a look?

I think that Cervelo R5 have a good chance to be my next bike, perfect geometry, good tyre clearance, amazing ride quality.

If you're looking at a Specialissma the budget is good. My mate has just picked up a Colnago C60 and he much prefers it too his Specilissma.
