    Currently looking at n+1'ing with a winter bike. On the list are the Ribble Audax, Dolan fxe and On One Pompino. Top limit of budget is €1,000.

    Any suggestions on other bikes to add to the list would be appreciated.

    If you add a few quid you could get a Cannondale Synapse Disc with 10spd Tiagra.

    It's top of my list next year when the BTW comes around again but of funds allow I'll atretch the budget and get the 105 version.

    Cube bikes, whatever you can afford - they're great, go for the 2015 Peloton Alu models, they should be on discount at the moment in CRC :D

    Not too taken with either the cube or cannondale paint jobs,nice bikes though.

    The Audax 105 is winning out but just wondering if it would be worth getting it with SRAM apex if I have the money to? Would it be really down to personal preference?

    Possibly, any details? Wheelset, gearing, frame size, pics etc and how much are you looking for it?

    Good quality sealed bearing flip flop wheelset, got fixed cogs or a few different sizes of freewheels. cranks are Stronglights with a 46t chainring, very low mileage. Pm me your email and I can send some pics. Size is M/L
