Looking for road bike

    Hi Folks

    I’m in market for a new road bike . Budget is about 3k give or take
    Has anybody spotted anything online or can point me in right direction ? Would happily buy in Ireland if price is similar.
    I’m 5-8 usually ride small or medium depending on geometry
    Would love something with Di2 or ultegra mechanical
    Would definitely consider something in mint condition second hand too
    Not really interested in an endurance frame , ideally a fast handling racer with discs but would consider rim brake
    Thanks

    Have a look at the Cannondale shop soiled section on Hargreaves.co.uk

    Excellent value and top blokes to deal with

    Of the top of my head these bikes are around 2500
    Canyon ultimate sl disc 8.0 (ultegra)
    Cannodale supersix evo (105)
    Specialized tarmac sport (105)
    Giant Tcr advanced disc (ultegra)

    Check the 2nd market you can find ultegra disc bikes for about 1500 on their but you might have to wait.

    Bought a felt vr4 in the cycle super store on sale 3 weeks ago. Ultegra/carbon and all you would expect. €2700 down to €1900. With the money saved you could swap over to Di2 and sell on the original derailers etc. Really happy with it in the few spins I've had before the 2k lockdown came in.

    You might find a Canyon Ultimate Di2 Disc in that price range either from an outlet or in a sale - getting a bit dated but a really nice bike
