Well I’ve gone and bought my bike – it’s a Specialized Allez road bike and I got it from local store, Don Skene, who were as good as any online store I looked at. They threw in a helmet, gloves, computer and water bottle in the total price and also throw in a free service after a months use just to check it’s all fine. Excellent service so far.
I’m collecting it tomorrow because they’re fitting all the bits for me, so I hope to take it out for a spin on Thursday.
