'buying advice'

Bikesdirect Motobecane, whats the catch?

So they're selling a decently reviewed Ti bike with full ultegra for under £600... There has to be a catch.

Newbie looking for advice - It's Done - Photo Added

Hi All, I have been commuting for some time and since giving up rugby at the end of last season I have finally decided to get myself a road bike and keep fit by cycling.

I have decided to take the plunge and give myself a budget or around GBP 2,000 and I have got my list down to 4 options (based on Reviews, LBS advice and short test rides)

I intend to use the bike to clock up miles on weekends, evenings and holidays and also to enter a few sportives. I don't intend to get into racing of any kind (but I have said things like this before)
