Hello, guys i want to ask you one question!
I want to buy a cyclocross bike.
Found one at rutlandcycling.com
This is the bike https://www.rutlandcycling.com/bikes/road-bikes/gt-grade-cx-rival-2017-c...
The price is low and I don’t know is this bike brand new or ex-display, demo?
what do you think is the bike good for the money,i will use it most ot the time in city,and maybe weekends on the eco trails.This will be my first cyclocross bike.I also want to ask you is the site legit,becaus i found negative coments on internet for this seller.
And my last question is what size should i buy?I am 179-180cm size 55 or size 56?
Sorry for my english it is not my first language.Thanks you very much!

Terrible idea, sealing a phone in that type of bag is just asking for condensation that can wreck a phone.

Well done to the drivers. If the DISGUSTING COUNCIL can not provide adequate parking, then PARK WHERE EVER.

Car paint is a good idea, but my previous attempts haven't been good, so I'll leave it to someone that knows what they're doing!

I’m 5’10” and have the 55cm so that size would be perfect for you. Nothing wrong with Rutland Cycles either, one of the fairly big retailers. Excellent bike that’ll do anything except pedalling down fast descents - single ring means you spin out over 30mph. I put an 11-36 cassette on and it gets me up anything the North Yorkshire Moors has to offer.
That's a great price for what is a cracking bike. It is a reputable store both online and shopfront. The GT grade frames are BIG for their size so go the smaller frame if you would normally buy the bigger frame.
The SRAM Rival gear is fabulous too.
I might add that if you are taking it off road that 32 tooth rear cog will be a struggle up anything remotely steep.
