    Im looking at a Cube Agree GTC: http://www.cyclesuperstore.ie/shop/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=0&idproduct=48030

    Any issues/comments with this bike?
    I can’t find any bike with full carbon/105 anywhere for this price.
    The weight is also only 8.4Kg

    this is also at the limit of my budget...
    It will be used mainly for long spins ~ 70 - 120Km

    If anyone has other suggestions of bike I should look at... it would be much appreciated.

    Cheers
