Women's bike advice
I am currently trying to decide whether to invest in a Trek Silque SLX or stick with my current bike Liv Avail Advanced Pro.
My DH won't let me have 2 so in order to have the Trek i would have to part ways with the Liv.
The Trek I am looking at has Di2 whilst the Liv has ultegra.
I am a sportive rider so comfort is more important than out & out speed which is why the Trek appeals
Any advice? Stick or twist?

A third option, I hadn't thought of that, but then he does make a mean cup of tea so I might have to keep him
My advice? Dump the DH.
(The resale value on the Liv will be so poor, you're better off turning it into a winter bike.)
