Want a road bike with eyelets and disc brakes..

Just got back from the Trek shop and had a chat about the Trek Domane 4.5 and on my Trek website is say's the bike has vanishing mudguard mounts..
Two questions..
1/The Spanish Trek site does not have the VMM's listed but the English Trek site has..who is right?
2/ What are vanishing mudguard mounts..

Email Trek?
I would guess they are holes with bits of rubber to stick in, for people who are self concious about havig mudguards...

Googled the vanishing mudguard mounts and it seems a bit of a mismash, several people have taken the 4 grub screws out but the mudguards don't fit or the ones they purchased didn't.
I tried sending an email to Trek before and not had a reply that was 4 months ago.
Weird!

Might have a good deal on a Trek Domane 4.5 at the Trek shop..
I bought a Trek Madone 5.2 which was an ex demo bike for €1800 a couple of months back, as it was such a good price.
I went to see them yesterday and they offered me a Trek Domane Ultegra 4.5 Disc (2105) for 2,699 euros less discount and the bike is €2029 which at the exchange rate makes that about £1750 with evans selling them at £2300 this is a £550 saving and £750 over the Roubaix Ultergra which they sell at £2500.
Plus they know someone that might buy my Madone 5.2 at the price I payed for it..

I have been looking at CX bikes, but that is one brand that I missed - cheers for that!

Oh, and it looks like Whyte is another brand to add to my list.

Hi Colin..
On the CX bikes have you seen a Rose Pro DX 2000 in the flesh as I have seen one for £925 wich sits about the same price as the Caadx 105 and the Cube Race 105.
