A very good-value way to get your hands on a Shimano 105-equipped bike with a highly competent frameset
Good value overall
High-quality frame
Easy to ride
Bombproof build
Non 105-spec chainset and brake rotors
Wheels and tyres feel weighty and uninspiring

Brilliant all-round road bike that's comfortable and engaging to ride
Great specification
Rewarding and composed ride
Impressive seated comfort
Aluminium handlebar transmits vibration
Wheels aren't especially quick
