    Hi all,

    I cant make my mind up on these bikes, my head is sore thinking:

    Felt F95 €725
    Giant Defy 3 €695
    Trek 1.2 €795
    Ridley Triton C €600

    I know there is a big difference in price from low to high, but can anyone suggest which is the best value from these. :confused:

    I wanted to spend €800 at the most.

    Many thanks

    Shane

    Hi Whitehawk,

    I had a look at your links, theres a lot of info out there but this has helped.
    The Cube 2011 Aerial looks a nice bike too.

    Thanks for the response

    I picked up the trek 1.2 a couple of months ago. I find it a very comfortable bike. The front end is Sora components and the back end are Tiagra which are a step up from Sora. I cycle on the flat and also on hilly stretches and they work well.
    I'd advise you that whatever bike you pick get one that has carbon forks as it will smooth out the ride for you.
    I looked at the Felt f95 and I nearly bought it but I just preferred the look of the Trek - the only real difference in spec between the 2 is the felt f95 has sora back end
