    hey all,

    gonna buy a road bike under the bike to work scheme. I have a maximum budget of around the €1K mark as I'm taking advantage of the bike to work scheme. I'm looking for a mens 56-58" that will be decentish for use in a tri event (I'm galeforece/wicklow WAR)

    can you recommend makes/models and a bricks and mortar shop (closer to dublin the better). AFAIK it has to be an irish company to take advantage of the scheme

    thanks, RS

    Actually, you can buy the bike from anywhere under the rules of the scheme. Whether your employer will place any restriction on who you can buy from is another question.
