Hi all,
My quest for a winter bike continues.
Currently looking at:
Decathlon's Triban
520 https://www.decathlon.co.uk/p/recre...ranSiteID=kXQk6.ivFEQ-EaMnCUPKMegNSzCmbT3gew#
Well priced and includes 105 which is nice, not sure about the mechanical hybrid disc brakes and have heard mixed reports about the wheels.
Ribbles Aluminium CGR AL
https://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/ribble-cgr-al-orange-shimano-tiagra/
Seems like a good all rounder, but does it offer more value than the triban?
Ribbles Steel 725
https://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/ribble-endurance-725-disc-green-shimano-tiagra/
Probably the nicest looking of the lot (IMO)
Finding it very difficult to choose any bike. I've had a look at the 2nd hand offerings and they're pretty slim to be honest.
I don't really want to stray outside of this price point
Would appreciate any input from owners of any of the above.
