Anybody have one of these ?https://coynecycles.ie/products/new-bikes/road-bikes-new/viking-pro-road-master-54cm-gents-700c-wheel-road-bike-vp014/ Full tiagra group set, Reynolds 725 frame 1300 euros. Seems on the cheap side in comparison to any other 725 calliper brake frame bike. Any opinions appreciated.

I would look at the Giant Contend or Cube Agree which could offer cable actuated hydraulic brakes. Or does it have to be a Reynolds 725 frame?

I was just surprised at the difference in pricing between this and the genesis and ribble 725 range. I may indeed just to go with a giant ar1 and push the budget..

there's also a CXy style bike from them, pretty similar spec, with i think cable actuated disc brakes.

I’ve seen that, looks like good value for money, unsure what bike to compare the geometry to. Considerably cheaper than the croix de fer
