Hi Guys

Looking to get a bike on the bike to work scheme. Went to my local bike shop and he recommened the above for €1100. I was hoping to get a bike and all the gear for €1000 but if its a good bike I will streach that little bit extra. Im 6.1 and weigh about 15 stone, so im trying to get fit and the first thing I want to do is instead of driving 10km to work Im gonna start cycling and make the commute home longer. My question is what do people think of this bike or should I get something else.

Cheers in advance
