I'm looking for a decent road bike that will be used basically every day (for around 1 1/2 hrs). I've got between £500 and 600 to spend probably, though around this price, the cheaper the better, really.
I've seen a lot of people on here say that you don't get the best value for money from buying well-known makes of bike. So what makes will give the most bike for my money?
At the moment, I'm quite impressed by the Cube Aerial in terms of specs and looks ... here ... for £550. What about bikes of similar prices from Specialised, Trek, GT and Cannondale, Scott, Bianche etc? Anything I should be avoiding?
I have built bikes in the past, including the MTB I'm on at the moment, but I'd probably prefer not to unless there was going to be a massive price difference if I did it myself. Is there much point looking into this seriously?
Thanks for your help
