    Hi, was just wondering if anyone can shed any light on a good starter Road Bike. I'm looking for it for recreational and some TRI use. I do a good bit of mileage (40+) on the weekends and have been using a Kelly's MTB.

    Hoping to make the big change to a road bike but there is so many out there. Was shown a Cube Ariel and Lapierre Audacio 200/Shaper 300 but they weren't blowing me away.

    Any ideas, something comfy is a must (saddle), light and good value, hoping to spend 1,000EUR on the cycle to work scheme.

    Specialized seem good but i think out of price bracket and also Giant seem god but not sure what models? Any ideas...

    If you use the search facility here you should be able to find plenty of threads describing your exact your query with pretty much the same suggested bikes in each. With the same search facility you should also be able to find the 'bike to work megathread' which will probably contain the answers to any queries which you may have regarding that aspect of your bike acquisition.
