    I'm upgrading my road bike and believe I've narrowed down my options so am looking for comment / advice to help me finally decide which bike to get. All four bikes have 105 group set and have the more comfortable sportive/endurance geometry.

    2016 Lapierre Sensium 500 --- €1,760

    2016 Giant Defy Advanced 2 --- €1,760

    2015 Cannondale Synapse 6 --- €1,700

    2015 Focus Cayo 7.0 --- €1,500


    Thanks!!

    Sorry I should have said I'm using my Cycle to Work Scheme to subsidise the cost so I have to buy in an actual shop

    Had been looking at them alright but have heard a lot of negative reports about the Irish place so wasn't going to take the chance
